Florida Trial Attorney Ron Sholes is a 10-year military veteran who was born and raised in Illinois and has made Florida his home for nearly 20 years. Ron received his undergraduate degree from Southern Illinois University while serving on active duty in the military, and his law degree from the University of Florida and is admitted to practice in all Florida State Courts.

During his 10 years of service on active duty, Ron served in the Gulf War in Operation Desert Shield and Desert Storm, the Bosnian Conflict in our military's Operation Provide Promise, and in several Counter-Narcotics Operations in the Southern Caribbean Sea and Eastern Pacific Ocean. Among other things, he was awarded the National Defense Service Medal, the Southwest Asia Service Medal, the Kuwaiti Liberation Medal two Navy/Marine Corps Achievement Medals. Ron Sholes is also an active member of the American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars, associations of service members who served during times of war.

Now, Ron is dedicated to vigorously defending and fighting for the rights of his clients. Ron prides himself on providing the best possible legal representation. This includes the personal service that you expect and deserve from a lawyer. Ron understands this and that is why each of his clients has his personal cell phone number. Ron understands that your case is likely the most important thing going on in your life, and regardless of how small someone else thinks it may be, you need your questions answered.

Like many attorneys that handle personal injury, Social Security, employment law, etc., Ron specializes in three main practice areas: personal injury, criminal and DUI defense, and family law matters. Ron frequently represents clients and their families in all three of these practice areas. He believes that these are the most common practice areas in which clients need representation and therefore has been dedicated to these specialties.

We do have other attorneys which also specialize in various practice areas which Ron personally ensures are handled the same way he handles his cases. Ron's experience representing clients from both sides gives our firm, and our clients, a better understanding of the legal process.

Our clients have found Ron's ability to guide them through the legal process to be insightful and extremely helpful. Understanding each of the three main legal areas has been the key. Check out the practice area you are seeking on our website and then call us for a free, no-hassle consultation.
