About John
John Collingsworth built a law practice from the ground up. He arrived at law school after an undergraduate degree in history and left with a degree in law and the practical instincts that shape his work today.
He earned a Bachelor of Arts in history from Florida State University in 2003. He then attended Stetson University College of Law, completing his J.D. in 2010. Those years gave him both classroom training and exposure to the procedural side of cases. Classrooms and courtrooms set the foundation for the next chapter of his career.
After law school he practiced in Florida, learning the routines of litigation and client counseling. In 2016 he launched Collingsworth Law and has served as its founding partner since. Starting a firm required handling a steady mix of casework and business decisions. He has overseen staffing, client intake and the steady administrative demands that come with running a small firm. That experience has shaped how he organizes cases and communicates with clients.
Colleagues describe Collingsworth as methodical. He breaks complicated problems into concrete steps and prioritizes clear explanation over jargon. In hearings he tends to rely on preparation and practical argument. In client meetings he emphasizes timelines and options in plain language. Those habits reflect both his training and the routine pressures of running a practice where case management and client expectations are constant.
He is licensed to practice in Florida and has maintained professional memberships that keep him engaged with legal developments around the state. That engagement includes routine continuing education and local bar activities intended to stay current on procedural changes and case law. He has balanced those commitments with the demands of building a firm and managing a caseload.
Today Collingsworth continues to lead Collingsworth Law. He directs the firm’s day-to-day operations and remains involved in case strategy and client contact. He practices in Florida through Collingsworth Law, concentrating on representing clients in state courts and related matters.
