01 About Us
The Mandate

A litigation firm built around the client relationship

Sastre, Saavedra & Epstein is a Florida defense firm that manages risk for insurers, carriers, corporations, property owners, and professionals. We bring each client a combination of deep industry knowledge and expert perspective, because legal advice only has value when it can be applied in a business context.

From two offices we appear in every Florida circuit, all three federal districts, and admiralty and arbitration forums — with the bench depth to staff a program and the trial credibility to end a case.

01 / Listen We start with the business, not the pleading.

Every engagement opens with the client's objectives, tolerance, and reporting requirements — then the litigation plan is built backwards from them.

02 / Own Partners stay on the file, start to finish.

No hand-offs to the least expensive body in the room. The lawyer who scopes the matter is the lawyer who tries it.

03 / Close Exposure is resolved, not administered.

Early evaluation, disciplined budgets, and a willingness to try cases produce leverage that shortens the distance to resolution.
