About Theresa M.
Theresa M. Skahill earned her J.D. from New York Law School in 1990, where she studied injury law. Her legal education came at a time when tort and personal injury issues were drawing increased public attention.

After law school Skahill entered practice in Florida, where she is licensed to practice. Over the years she has handled a range of civil matters tied to injury law, representing individuals and families in disputes that often involve insurance carriers, medical issues, and complex liability questions. Her work has required both courtroom appearances and negotiation at the settlement table.

Trials, depositions, and motion practice have all been part of her routine, and she has worked on matters that range from minor accidents to cases alleging significant harm. She approaches each file by building the record and testing the opposing positions through formal discovery.

That credential appears alongside her practice history and reflects an area of professional recognition tied to personal representation. She has also maintained ties to professional networks in Florida related to civil litigation and injury matters.

Her current practice remains centered on injury law and personal injury matters in Florida. She handles new cases, conducts investigations, evaluates settlement opportunities, and proceeds to litigation when warranted. She currently focuses her practice on injury and personal injury matters in Florida.
