About Andrea
Andrea Wheeler brings a practical approach to business law shaped by years in local legal and entrepreneurial circles. She earned her J.D. from Stetson University College of Law in 2007 after beginning her studies in 2004. That academic foundation led her back to Florida to build a practice that intersects law and small business needs.
Her professional life centers on business clients. She practices at Wheeler Legal PLLC as a business lawyer, advising clients on everyday legal matters that affect running and growing a business. Her work spans transactional advice, contract drafting and review, and counsel on basic governance and compliance matters commonly encountered by startups and established small firms.
Wheeler has stayed active in professional and community organizations. She belongs to the American Bar Association’s Business Law Section. Since 2018 she has served as Education Chair for Space Coast SCORE, a volunteer role that involves teaching and mentoring small business owners. She joined the Brevard County Bar Association’s board in 2019 and continues in that capacity. Beginning in 2020 she became a mentor for Groundswell Startups, working directly with early-stage companies. She has maintained continuous professional membership since 2007.
Those volunteer roles shape how she approaches client work. She often advises entrepreneurs on entity selection, contract terms, and practical risk management. Her mentoring and SCORE activities mean she regularly explains legal issues in plain language. Clients who need straightforward answers and practical next steps are the ones who most often turn to her.
Colleagues describe her as accessible and pragmatic in client meetings. She aims to make legal steps understandable and to set realistic expectations about costs and timing. That approach fits the small-business and startup communities she interacts with through local bar work and mentoring programs.
