Edgar Lopez

Edgar Lopez practices law throughout Florida. He has represented both property owners and condemning authorities in all types of eminent domain cases, with values ranging from a few hundred dollars to over sixty million dollars.

On behalf of property owners, individuals and business entities, Edgar handles cases from start to finish. His work usually begins during the government’s planning stage, in order to educate his clients, communicate with the government, engage the right experts, and proactively address issues that may otherwise prevent his clients from recovering full compensation. Edgar personally ensures that his clients receive highly responsive legal services every step of the way, and, most importantly, when the government must take, it fully compensates.
