About Opal Phiona

Opal Phiona Lee is a dedicated attorney specializing in personal injury law at FloJam Legal, located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. She became a member of the Florida Bar in 2006, starting her impactful legal career. FloJam Legal is known for its comprehensive approach to various legal matters, including family law, divorce, and immigration law. The firm serves clients throughout Broward County, providing tailored legal solutions to meet diverse needs. Lee earned her Juris Doctor (J.D.) from Florida International University College of Law in 2005. Prior to that, she completed her undergraduate studies at Florida Atlantic University, where she received a Bachelor of Business Administration (B.B.A.) in Business Administration and Management in 2000.

Her academic background laid a solid foundation for her legal career, equipping her with essential skills in analysis and problem-solving. During her time in law school, she gained inexperience by working in various legal settings, which prepared her for a multifaceted practice. Most of Lee's caseload is centered around personal injury claims, where she passionately represents clients seeking compensation for accidents and injuries. These cases often begin with initial consultations, followed by negotiations, and, when necessary, litigation in family court. In addition to personal injury law, she adeptly handles family law matters, including divorce proceedings and child custody disputes. Her knowledge of both areas enables her to provide well-rounded legal support to her clients.

Before joining FloJam Legal, Lee developed her skills at a small firm that specialized in personal injury and family law. This experience was instrumental in developing her negotiation and client advocacy skills. Furthermore, her involvement in immigration law broadens her practice. This lets the attorney assist clients with visa applications and other immigration-related issues. This diverse expertise makes her a versatile attorney well-equipped to handle a variety of legal challenges. Opal is an active member of several professional associations, including the American Immigration Lawyers Association and the Broward County Women Lawyers Association.

She is also a member of the Federal Bar in the Southern District of Florida, which permits her to practice in federal court. Her active participation in these organizations keeps her informed about the latest legal developments and fosters networking opportunities with other professionals in the field. Outside of her legal practice, Lee is committed to community service and frequently engages in local outreach programs. Her dedication to both her clients and her community solidifies her reputation as a respected figure in the Fort Lauderdale legal field.
