Our Firm
EXTRAORDINARY RESULTS
Cantrell Schuette, P.A. is a boutique law firm focusing on non-compete and unfair competition disputes, employment law, and business disputes. We limit the number of clients we represent at any given time in lawsuits, and we focus on the firm’s core competencies.
As a firm hallmark, we prepare a detailed strategy upfront, always with an eye towards the client’s final objective and costs. We develop a deep understanding of the facts of each case, the relevant law, motivations driving each side, and map out a strategy to obtain the desired outcome as efficiently as possible. We don’t believe losing is ever an acceptable outcome. That statement is more than a mere platitude: we judge ourselves by our client’s outcomes and client reviews (see client reviews here).
The firm’s clients range from Fortune 500 companies and middle-market and high growth companies to entrepreneurs and individual executives. We have substantial experience across many industries, including insurance, healthcare, automotive, manufacturing, technology and staffing/recruiting. The matters we are trusted to handle range from walking client’s through risk mitigation efforts to avoid a dispute, to handling litigation, trials and arbitrations.
To financially align our interests with our client’s, we offer a variety of fee arrangements that emphasize risk-sharing and efficiency. Some examples of fee arrangements we offer are: fixed fees, contingency fees, and a wide range of customized hybrid arrangements, in addition to standard hourly billing.
OUR TEAM: TOP TALENT
Our team is credentialed, experienced, and has a track record of success. We select the most talented attorneys. Our attorneys hail from the top law schools in Florida and graduated near the top of their class. Intellect and judgement are of upmost importance in the practice of law. Of course, those attributes are no substitute for hard work. Each of our attorneys are committed to working tirelessly on behalf of our clients as effectively and efficiently as possible.
OUR APPROACH TO CLIENTS: ACT AS “OUTSIDE” GENERAL COUNSEL
Most of our clients, especially companies and entrepreneurs, regularly look to us for guidance on their most important business issues. That is because, in part, we purposely learn about the nuances of our client’s business. Each member of the firm is focused on creatively and efficiently putting our clients into the best position possible for any concern or dispute.
OUR INCENTIVES: FEE STRUCTURES
We often structure fee arrangements that emphasize risk-sharing and efficiency. Examples of fee arrangements include: fixed fees, contingency fees, and a wide range of customized fee arrangements, in addition to hourly billing.
