About Dan
Dan Cytryn took a conventional path into law after an early grounding in numbers. He earned a Bachelor of Business Administration in accounting from the University of Miami in 1978, then stayed in Florida to complete his J.D. at Nova Southeastern University in 1981. Those credentials set a practical tone for a career built around courtroom work and procedural detail.
He began practicing in the years after law school and has remained active in Florida ever since. Over more than four decades he has concentrated on litigation. That span of time includes trial work, representation in civil disputes, and steady involvement in the bar and trial advocacy organizations that shape litigation practice in the state.
Cytryn is Board Certified as a Civil Trial Lawyer by The Florida Bar. That certification signals an emphasis on tried cases and bench-and-jury experience. It also marks him among lawyers who have met formal criteria for experience and testing in civil trial practice under Florida Bar standards.
His memberships reflect an engagement with rules and advocacy. He is a current member of the Florida Bar Association and serves on the Florida Bar’s Civil Procedure Rules Committee. He also belongs to the Florida Justice Association (formerly the Academy of Florida Trial Lawyers) under its E.A.G.L.E. designation, and is a member of the American Board of Trial Advocates (ABOTA). Those affiliations connect him to rulemaking discussions, statewide advocacy networks, and groups of trial lawyers concentrated on courtroom technique and standards.
Practically, Cytryn has operated from his own firm, Cytryn & Velazquez, P.A., where the office listing appears as Law Offices Cytryn & Velazquez, P.A. The firm name anchors his practice in Florida and provides the platform for litigation, motion practice, and trial preparation. Colleagues and opposing counsel know him through his courtroom appearances and committee work rather than through law school lecturing or high-profile appellate briefs.
He combines his accounting background and long trial practice when cases raise complex damages, loss calculations, or procedural challenges. He tries cases in state courts across Florida and participates in shaping procedural rules through his committee work. His current practice centers on civil trial litigation in Florida courts.
