Law Office of Adam C. King, P.A.
King Law Practice Areas
20+ years’ experience with business disputes and litigation
Hello. I’m Adam King. It can be difficult for a new venture or small business to find efficient and cost-effective legal counsel. Most law firms cater to large businesses because large businesses typically have numerous active legal matters at one time and they are not as sensitive to legal rates and costs. This approach does not work for new or small businesses who need efficient and cost-effective legal assistance.
My firm will provide personalized and focused attention that you typically do not get at a large firm. As a small firm owner, I have many of the same concerns as my small business clients. My goal is to use this knowledge and experience to help you navigate the issues facing your business. I can assist with matters ranging from starting a new business to succession planning, including any claims, litigation, or other hurdles along the way.
If you are planning on starting a new business or need representation for your current concern, please schedule your consultation today! I look forward to working with you!

Florida Business Law
Starting and operating a small business can be daunting tasks. Whether you are an entrepreneur with a new business concept or an owner of an established business, there are many decisions that require input and advice from an attorney. I can assist you with all aspects of starting and operating your business, including contract preparation and review, transactions, acquisitions, business disputes, claims, collection of accounts receivable, and winding down.
Florida Construction Law
A significant portion of my law practice for the last 15 years related to construction projects and associated claims. I handled claims and lawsuits relating to construction projects that ranged from single family homes to several hundred million dollar high-rise towers. If you need help with a construction matter or claim, hire an experienced construction law attorney instead of a general practitioner.
Florida Payment and Performance Bond Claims
Construction project owners and contractors may obtain payment and performance bonds to protect their own interests. Bond companies and their counsel are experienced in denying and avoiding bond claims. It is critical to provide proper and timely notice to be able to enforce your bond rights. You also must timely file a lawsuit or make an arbitration demand to be able to pursue your claim. Please contact me if you need assistance in evaluating or pursuing a potential bond claim.
Florida Lawsuits and Arbitration Proceedings
In Florida, business entities that are parties to a lawsuit typically must be represented by an attorney. If you have a claim, you should carefully evaluate the merits and potential costs of enforcing your rights before filing a lawsuit or arbitration demand. If you are faced with a possible claim, you should begin evaluating options and planning your defense as soon as you receive notice of the potential claim. You should have a well-coordinated response, evaluate an early resolution to avoid deductibles and defense costs, and consider potential pass-through rights against other responsible parties. With more than 20 years of litigation experience, I can help you, your business, employees, and other stakeholders navigate these issues and pitfalls.
Florida Insurance Planning and Claims
Insurance is a critical line of defense against claims and lawsuits. It can save your company from claims that could jeopardize everything you have worked for. Unfortunately, commercial liability and other coverages continue to narrow in scope and are subject to numerous exceptions and exclusions. Similar types of policies issued by different carriers may not provide similar coverage. How many business owners have read, much less understand, their insurance policies?
Florida Business Succession Planning
Do not let your hard work slip away when you wish to step back from day-to-day management of your business. There are a number of options to explore to ensure that your business continues operating and that you get paid for the value you created. You may want to transfer the business to family members, sell the business, or maintain an ownership interest that provides future income. Please contact me if you would like to discuss these and other options.
Florida Self-Directed IRAs and 401Ks
Although the stock market has been on a great run for the last few years, there are other opportunities to consider for tax-deferred retirement funds. Self-directed IRAs and 401(k)s can purchase real estate investment properties, businesses, and other assets. Under certain circumstances, these investments can be made with after-tax funds (Roth IRAs) or taxes can be deferred until the retirement funds are distributed (Traditional IRAs). The appreciation of these assets, without paying interim income tax, provides an incredible opportunity to accumulate assets for retirement. Please contact me if you would like to discuss these and other options for your retirement holdings.
