About Gary T.
Gary T. Lazarus took a straightforward path into law, moving from undergraduate studies to a law degree in a short span. He earned a B.A. from St. John s University School of Law in 1987 and completed his J.D. at Nova Southeastern University in 1990. Those academic years set the groundwork for a long-standing practice in Florida.
He is admitted to practice in Florida and has built his career at Lazarus & Lazarus. The firm appears repeatedly in his professional history and is where he maintains his practice. Over the years he has kept a steady presence in the state’s legal community, representing clients and handling matters that arise in Florida courts.
Lazarus is an active member of several bar and advocacy organizations. He belongs to the Florida Bar Association, the Florida Justice Association and the American Association for Justice. Those memberships place him in networks that center on trial practice and advocacy for claimants. He attends meetings and stays involved in conversations that shape litigation strategy and procedural developments in the state.
Colleagues and peers describe Lazurus as thorough and pragmatic in his approach to casework. He favors a methodical preparation of claims and defenses. He combines courtroom experience with attention to the procedural details that can determine outcomes. That approach fits the types of organizations he joins and the cases he takes to hearing or settlement.
Today he practices at Lazarus & Lazarus, handling matters that arise under Florida law. His professional affiliations suggest an emphasis on plaintiff-side litigation and trial work, and his day-to-day practice reflects that orientation. He remains active in local bar activities and professional groups while carrying a caseload at Lazarus & Lazarus focused on representing individuals in civil litigation matters.
