Law Practice
Selendy Gay is a premier law firm devoted to the most challenging disputes.
About us
Selendy Gay's practice is dedicated to excellence in commercial litigation, investigations, appellate advocacy, and arbitration. We have gathered legal talent of the highest caliber—the smartest minds, the most agile courtroom lawyers, and the most creative strategists. By re-thinking law firm structure, operations, and culture, we have also crafted an environment for our lawyers to serve our clients’ needs with focus and efficiency. Putting our clients first includes learning their businesses to advise proactively and to be ready if crisis strikes. It also means bringing a strongly led, tightly-coordinated combination of talent and resources to each of our client’s priorities. Through critical thinking and collaboration, we offer an unmatched plaintiffs’ practice combined with a premier defense practice. Our partners have earned industry-leading reputations by winning trials of the highest stakes in nearly every type of complex commercial litigation, arbitration, and investigation. As plaintiffs’ counsel, we have pioneered claims, and even practice areas, that recovered billions of dollars and held institutional giants accountable. As defense counsel, we have won bet-the-company cases that threatened the existence of our clients’ businesses and business models, vindicated individuals in aggressive white-collar prosecutions, and counseled clients successfully in fast-moving investigations. We have tried dozens of cases to verdict in state and federal courts across the nation and arbitrated many cases through to award, often stepping in at the last minute to handle distressed cases at trial or on appeal. Our experience brings our clients better courtroom results and also better settlements, because our adversaries have no doubt of the courtroom threat we pose.

It was great to be at the Financial Times Innovate Awards where Selendy Gay PLLC was shortlisted for the “Innovative Lawyers in Pro Bono” award. Congrats to my partner Lauren Zimmerman, Esq. for leading the firm’s First Amendment litigation on behalf of the authors of “And Tango Makes Three,” a children’s book that was removed or restricted in several Florida school districts for its positive message about LGBTQ+ families. Selendy Gay secured several victories, including a significant settlement that secured the return of 36 books back to school libraries.
