About Roddy B.
Roddy B. Lanigan built an academic path that tracked from history to law. He earned a B.A. in American Colonial History and Economics from the University of Virginia in 1998. He then studied at the University of Cambridge, receiving an M.A. in Economic History in 2002. He completed his legal training at the University of Mississippi School of Law, receiving a J.D. in 2007.
After law school, Lanigan established his practice in Florida, where he is admitted to the bar. His early years in the profession are marked by steady work in private practice and the steady development of a general practice. He has practiced under the banner of Lanigan and Lanigan, carrying out representation for a mix of individual and business clients.
Lanigan's academic background in history and economics informs the way he approaches legal problems. He tends to examine records and statutes closely. He looks for patterns in financial documents and historical context in disputes that turn on chronology or long-running transactions. That analytical bent shows up in how he prepares matters and frames issues for clients and courts.
His work at Lanigan and Lanigan has involved both courtroom appearances and negotiated resolutions. He has handled matters that require detailed factual review and those that call for careful drafting and negotiation. Colleagues describe him as methodical in trial preparation and pragmatic in settlement talks. He practices across a range of civil matters, handling litigation, contract issues, and client counseling as the case requires.
Outside casework, Lanigan's education informs occasional writing and speaking on topics that intersect law, economics, and history. Those activities have complemented his litigation and advisory work. He maintains professional memberships that keep him engaged with developments in Florida law and practice.
Clients and peers find his style deliberate rather than flashy. He aims for clarity in filings and steadiness in court. He manages cases with attention to detail and an eye toward resolving disputes efficiently when possible. He continues to practice at Lanigan and Lanigan in Florida, focusing on matters before Florida courts.
