For the second consecutive year, Miami partner and co-chair of the International Financial Services Practice Group, Tom Morante, was named by South Florida Legal Guide (2004 Annual Edition), as one of the top 250 attorneys in South Florida. South Florida encompasses Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties, and includes the cities of Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, Boca Raton, and West Palm Beach. Recognition is based on a survey of attorneys in South Florida, asking which attorneys they would recommend to a family member or friend in different practice areas. South Florida Legal Guide reviewed the recommended attorneys and consulted with other prominent attorneys in South Florida to determine the top attorneys out of the more than 36,000 attorneys practicing law in South Florida.
