Fuerst Ittleman David & Joseph (FIDJ) is a boutique law firm providing comprehensive representation to domestic and international businesses. The firm is headquartered in Miami, and represents clients in matters involving litigation, transactions, regulatory compliance and enforcement, and white collar criminal defense. The firm’s attorneys have handled wide ranging matters across the globe.
From the courtroom to the boardroom, FIDJ is noted for its efficient, cost effective legal services, stability, and strong work product. These attributes help clients thrive in a broad array of business environments, including growth opportunities, contentious disputes, and government investigations. The firm’s reputation has allowed for growth based in large part on referrals from its clients, other attorneys, accountants, and regulatory experts. The firm also maintains a long standing network of professionals to assist in the rendering of legal services on an as needed basis.
FIDJ is proud of its proven track record representing clients in complex, high-stakes litigation in state and federal courts and domestic and international arbitrations confronting a wide array of legal issues. The firm’s litigation and arbitration experience includes disputes involving fraud, statutory violations, deceptive and unfair trade practices and breaches of contracts and fiduciary duties involving real estate, securities, medical products and services, intellectual property, e-commerce, and a host of others. The firm is also experienced in handling class action and multi district litigation matters, as well as cases involving international discvory disputes, such as those governed by 28 U.S.C. 1782.
The firm is unique in its ability to advise clients on complex regulatory matters, including as fractional compliance officers for small to midsize businesses. The firm’s attorneys routinely draft, implement and train relevant personnel on compliance policies addressing anti-corruption, antitrust, anti-money laundering (AML), U.S. sanctions laws and regulations implemented and enforced by OFAC, and government contracts. Clients often call on the firm to employ its broad legal and regulatory knowledge when litigating, drafting and negotiating contracts, and interfacing with state and federal government officials. The firm’s regulatory knowledge is particularly helpful when representing clients in False Claims Act investigations and litigation.
Outside general counsel services are available upon request by select clients. In these instances, FIDJ is capable of providing virtually all the legal services required on a fixed fee basis, including litigation, transactions, government inspections and investigations, and regulatory compliance.
The firm’s clients include real estate brokerages, banks, money services businesses (“MSBs,” including money transmitters, check cashers and cryptocurrency providers), fintechs, skilled nursing facilities and other healthcare providers, exporters and importers, and entrepreneurs in myriad industries.
Regardless of the circumstances, the firm’s attorneys strive to work diligently and in the best interests of their clients. It is for these reasons that FIDJ has maintained decades-long relationships with clients, opposing counsel, and its own attorneys and other employees.
