About Arleen
Arleen Lazarus earned a B.A. from St. John's University School of Law in 1987 and a J.D. from the University of Miami in 1990. She completed her formal legal education as the country entered a new decade. The books were closed on law school, and a legal career began.
She practices in Florida and is listed as a lawyer at Lazarus & Lazarus. Her professional path is anchored at that firm, where she has handled the day-to-day tasks of client representation, case preparation and courtroom procedure. Colleagues describe her as steady in the courtroom and methodical in her files. She moves deliberately through complex factual records and procedural steps.
Lazarus holds memberships in several professional organizations. She is a current member of the Florida Bar Association and participates in the Florida Justice Association and the American Association for Justice. Outside strictly legal circles she also maintains membership in the National Association of Female Executives. Those affiliations keep her connected to peers across law and business and provide access to continuing education and professional resources.
Her work at Lazarus & Lazarus has involved litigation and client counseling, performed under Florida rules and procedures. She has prepared pleadings, managed discovery and advocated at hearings. The practice requires attention to deadlines, clear communication with clients and steady courtroom presence. She balances those demands against the administrative obligations of running a practice.
People who have worked with her note a straightforward manner. She explains risks and options in plain language. She prefers practical solutions when they are available. At the same time, she will press contested matters when a negotiated resolution is not possible.
Over the years she has maintained active ties to statewide legal groups. That network has informed her approach to case strategy and trial preparation. She stays current on legal developments through association programs and continuing legal education.
She continues to practice at Lazarus & Lazarus in Florida, handling matters for clients across the state.
