Florida Conservation Attorney Dedicated to Preserving Land
The value of Florida’s lands can’t be overstated. Open spaces and natural resources, agricultural lands, and recreation areas are under pressure of expansive development, with a population growing rapidly at around 1,000 new residents daily and tourism bringing over 140 million people annually. These lands are critical to the heart of our state, to our productive economy, to nature, our water, iconic springs, prairies, and wildlife. And to landowners, the connection and commitment to property is a priority that becomes a legacy. Owners of ranches, farms, timber or recreation properties have valuable options available to preserve the legacy of their land—to transfer that land for public conservation or protect it in perpetuity with conservation easements while continuing existing operations. You can help your family or business while you also help preserve a better future for the state.
