While Miami got its start as a resort destination, the city’s economy has expanded and diversified extensively over the past 25 years. Today, Miami is an international financial and cultural center, providing a vital gateway between the United States, Latin America, Europe and Asia. Many multinational corporations have based their Latin American operations in Miami, and the city is home to one of the country’s largest concentration of international banks. Greenberg Traurig has strong roots here. Lawyers who brought an entrepreneurial, business-focused style of practice to South Florida founded our firm in Miami. GT’s Miami office advises local, national and international companies in numerous industries and sectors, including aviation, entertainment, financial institutions, health care, international trade and customs, manufacturing, real estate, retail and technology. Our legal team in Miami represents virtually all of the firm’s core practices. Our corporate and securities lawyers advise companies on an array of transactions, from general corporate matters to mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures and antitrust and trade regulation. We work closely with our colleagues in the Business Reorganization & Bankruptcy Practice, which represents debtors, secured and unsecured creditors, official committees, trustees and purchasers of troubled companies and their assets, both in and out of bankruptcy court.
