Broward County
Fort Lauderdale, FL
Fort Lauderdale is the hub of Florida's marine and yachting industry, with a marine-commerce economy of brokerage, vessel finance, and high-value asset transactions running through the Broward County courts. Fortaris brings asset tracing, fraud examination, and due-diligence depth to these matters — anchored by a Managing Director who served as DHS Office of Inspector General Director of Field Operations, with particular strength in the cross-border and Caribbean dimensions that marine commerce so often carries.
