About Frank P.
Frank P. Marsalisi is a Florida attorney who launched his own practice, Marsalisi Law, in 2014. He built a practice out of courtroom work and steady progression through litigation roles. Colleagues describe him as someone who learned the mechanics of trial work early and then set up his own firm to handle that work directly.
Marsalisi studied criminology at the University of Florida, earning a B.A. in 2005. He continued his legal education at the University of Pittsburgh School of Law and received his J.D. in 2008. Those years established the academic foundation for the litigation path he pursued afterward.
His first position after law school was as a litigation lawyer at Fiol and Gomez in 2008. That role placed him in daily courtroom and case-preparation routines. In 2012 he moved into a managing lawyer position at Vanguard Lawyers, overseeing cases and mentoring junior attorneys. Two years later he opened Marsalisi Law and took on the responsibilities of founder and principal.
Marsalisi’s career track shows steady movement from associate-level litigation work to management and then to running a firm. He maintains memberships in a range of professional groups including The Florida Bar, the American Bar Association and the St. Petersburg and Hillsborough county bar associations. He is also active in organizations oriented to trial practice such as the Tampa Bay Trial Lawyers Association and the Florida Justice Association.
Beyond bar associations, Marsalisi participates in regional networks. He holds membership in the Tampa Bay Beaches Chamber of Commerce and the University of Florida Alumni Association. He is listed as a member or sponsor of the Pinellas County Medical Association, signaling connections with local healthcare stakeholders.
Peers note that he spends much of his professional time on contested matters that require courtroom presence. He prepares pleadings, handles depositions and appears before judges and juries. His background, from early litigation work to firm leadership, informs how he runs cases and trains staff.
Today he leads Marsalisi Law and practices litigation across Florida. He accepts cases that proceed to trial and represents clients in contested matters throughout the state.
