Welcome to The Law Office of Dan Policastro. I am a divorce and civil trial lawyer in Venice, Florida.
My law firm is centered around civil litigation and dispute resolution. 90% of my practice is dedicated to litigation. I practice primarily in the areas of divorce and family law, business and commercial litigation, real estate litigation, and probate and trust litigation. I enjoy a variety of practice areas, but the common thread is civil litigation.
I am proponent of early mediation and alternative dispute resolution, especially in the context of a divorce. This means that I keep the focus of your legal matter on the solution rather than the problem. This practical approach to solving legal problems allows me to resolve cases without litigation when possible. This saves my clients money and stress. However, when negotiations fail the legal system remains at our disposal. As a trial lawyer I make full use of the courts if that is what the situation requires.
When I opened my law firm in 2012 I made a commitment to practice law with excellence and to master the craft of being a lawyer. In addition to providing capable representation, I try my best to serve my clients with the highest levels of professionalism, integrity, and respect. It is a privilege to practice law and an honor to be entrusted with your important legal matters.
I promptly return all phone calls and emails, and I care about my clients and their needs. As a result I’ve cultivated a reputation for being an effective advocate. Whether your legal matter involves a complicated dispute or a relatively routine transaction, I approach each situation candidly and strategically. My office serves Venice, Sarasota, Manatee and Charlotte County, and I have assembled a team of professionals to assist in zealously representing your interests.
