About Francis
Biography
Frank Remsen, the firm founder and Native Floridian, was born at Homestead Air Force Base in Homestead, Florida, and raised in Boca Raton, Florida. He attended Florida Atlantic University where he obtained a Bachelors of Business Administration with a concentration in Finance and International Business. While at FAU, he was an active member of Delta Sigma Pi, an international business fraternity.
After obtaining his undergraduate degree, Frank entered St. Thomas University School of Law in Miami, Florida. While in law school, he was a member of the Association of Trial Lawyers of America and competed in trial competitions, such as the Hon. E. Earle Zehmer Memorial Mock Trial Competition. He was also a member of Phi Alpha Delta and a coordinator of the Volunteer Income Taxpayer Assistance (VITA) Program, which provided free tax preparation assistance to low income families.
Frank started his career as a law clerk at a litigation firm in South Florida, where he developed his passion for the courtroom. He was promoted by the firm and asked to relocate to Orlando in 2003 to open a new office for the firm. After successfully opening the Orlando office, he was responsible for opening the Tampa/St. Petersburg office and overseeing both offices for the firm. He represented clients throughout Florida in many different types of law. Frank was ultimately named a partner in the firm in 2006.
Having gained years of valuable experience both in and out of the courtroom, Frank decided it was time to fulfill his dream of opening the Law Office of Frank P. Remsen, PA. The new firm is founded on the principals of providing clients with excellent representation and personal attention.
Frank is admitted to practice law in the state courts of Florida, the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida and the US Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida. He is a member of the American Bar Association, the Florida Bar Association, the Lake County Bar Association, the Seminole County Bar Association and the Orange County Bar Association.
In his spare time, Frank enjoys spending time with his beautiful and understanding wife, his perfect little girl, and his loveable black lab. He also enjoys boating, spending time at the beach, watching movies and whatever his wife tells him they are doing. He is an avid Miami Dolphins and Miami Hurricanes football fan.

Outstanding Attorney!
I first met with Frank back in 2011 when I started a long and discouraging divorce.

No one ever gets married to get divorced. Through this ex...
