    Shorstein & Lasnetski, LLC is pleased to announce that Harry Shorstein, five term State Attorney for Duval, Clay and Nassau counties (1991-2008) and General Counsel for the City of Jacksonville, Florida has joined the firm. Mr. Shorstein brings his extensive legal experience, litigation abilities and negotiation skills to help represent clients in state and federal criminal matters including complex white collar crime cases involving individuals and businesses; wrongful death and personal injury cases due to auto accidents, truck accidents, defective products and other causes; business disputes and commercial litigation; professional liability matters in court and in front of licensing boards and family law cases.

    Mr. Shorstein was recently recognized by U.S. News & World Report/Best Lawyers as the best white collar crime defense lawyer for the Jacksonville, Florida area.  Only one attorney is chosen for this award in the entire Northeast Florida region.  Mr. Shorstein's peers recognized his record in handling a variety of white collar crime cases in state and federal courts including mortgage fraud cases, pain clinic cases and several others involving fraud allegations against individuals and corporations.  

    Mr. Shorstein was also one of three finalists for a United States Attorney position in Florida, which is appointed by the president.  Based on his unparalleled experience in criminal law and related legal matters, he was seriously considered to be the head of the entire United States Attorney's office for the Middle District of Florida which covers a district spanning from Jacksonville to Tampa.  However, Mr. Shorstein will remain in private practice at Shorstein & Lasnetski and continue to represent defendants in state and federal criminal cases as well as individuals and companies in business litigation and personal injury and wrongful death matters.  

    Additionally, Jeremy Lasnetski was recently recognized by The Florida Bar (the governing entity for all attorneys in Florida) as one of only ten private lawyers in Jacksonville, Florida to be board certified in the area of criminal litigation.  Board certification in the area of criminal law distinguishes Mr. Lasnetski with the highest level of evaluation by The Florida Bar in terms of knowledge, skills and proficiency in the areas of criminal defense litigation and professionalism.  Mr. Lasnetski was also recognized by Jacksonville Magazine as one of 2011 Northeast Florida's Best Lawyers.

    Considering the level of experience, knowledge and expertise offered by Shorstein & Lasnetski specific to Northeast Florida, when evaluating a law firm for your criminal defense, immigration, civil litigation or personal injury/wrongful death case, we suggest that you ask any prospective attorney about his or her experience and expertise as a comparison.   

    We believe these latest developments further illustrate that Shorstein & Lasnetski offers clients a level of experience and expertise in criminal, immigration and civil litigation matters that cannot be found anywhere else.  With that experience and depth of legal knowledge, the firm will continue to focus on client attention and communication and developing efficient, cost-effective and creative solutions to the problems and issues our clients face in the Jacksonville, Florida area and throughout Florida and Southeast Georgia. Shorstein & Lasnetski, LLC offers a unique blend of unparalleled experience, ingenuity and enthusiasm to our clients in a variety of criminal and civil litigation and dispute resolution related legal fields.
