KD Press Release: Kaufman Dolowich Continues Its Expansion in Florida With Larger Offices in Ft. Lauderdale

(August 14, 2018, Ft. Lauderdale, FL) — Kaufman Dolowich & Voluck LLP (KD) today announced that it has consolidated its Ft. Lauderdale and Boca Raton offices into larger, new space in Ft. Lauderdale, doubling the total space the firm has in Florida. The move is designed to support a growing roster of attorneys and staff and create a more collaborative environment for attorneys and clients to work together.

KD now occupies more than 4,000 square feet at 100 SE 3rd Avenue, Suite 1500 in Ft. Lauderdale, also known as One Financial Plaza, or the Regions Building.  Located in the downtown “Las Olas” district, the new offices are in close proximity to South Florida state and federal courts, three international airports and many other professional and social amenities.     
 
“We are very excited about the opportunity to have all of our Florida lawyers together in a terrific new space as we continue to grow our Florida presence,” said Bruce S. Liebman, co-managing partner of the Florida office. “We are confident that this expansion will provide us with a great ‘home base’ for our clients, attorneys and staff for years to come.”
