Biography

Recognizing that all of life is a journey that involves planning from Gen Z to The Greatest Generation and through Probate, Max's practice focuses on elder law, specifically guardianship, probate administration and litigation, health care issues, public benefits, wills, trusts, and estate planning and litigation, financial exploitation, and appeals.

His colleagues throughout Florida have recognized him for his strength in exploitation litigation, using holistic analysis to resolve litigated disputes to avoid litigation, and estate planning techniques for younger individuals and couples, nontraditional families like blended families, LGBTQ couples, and more.

Max has been nominated by his peers as a Rising Star in Florida Elder Law in 2021, 2022, and 2023 and holds various leadership positions in the Elder Law Section of the Florida Bar. He is also a published author on issues related to privacy law, public international law, and speaks regularly on the effects of the relationship between pop culture's impact on the law and guardianship. He has presented on numerous topics before judges, attorneys, and other professionals on topics related to elder law, privacy law, representing individual and professional fiduciaries, and exploitation.

In addition to his work at the office, Max maintains an active pro bono practice assisting veterans, children, LGBTQ, and low-income seniors. He especially enjoys working with animal rescue organizations and setting up pet trusts.

Max is a proud "triple ‘Nole," having received his Juris Doctor, Master of Science in American Politics and Policy, and Bachelors in history and international affairs from Florida State University.

When not at the office, Max happily spends time hiking with his Pembroke Welsh Corgis, tabby cat, travels, and loyally, though sometimes sadly, follows international soccer, Seminole sports, Tottenham Hotspurs, Pittsburgh Steelers, Penguins, and, begrudgingly still, South Florida sports.
