Our fully bilingual firm handles divorce and family law matters, while helping clients plan a new future for their family and assets, during the legal process and afterward.
Sergio Cabanas, Esq. founded the Cabanas Law Firm in 2006 and provides Divorce and Family Law legal services, as well as Estate Planning, to ensure his clients have planned for their newly single life and are protected after their divorce. He began his career in law in 1992 as a prosecuting attorney at the Broward County State Attorney’s Office, then continued his litigation track as an insurance defense attorney defending medical professionals against medical malpractice claims and expanded into disability and life insurance claims.
Sergio is a Certified Mediator and a frequent speaker in the community about the importance of Estate Planning to keep families out of probate court and to prepare essential instructions in the event of disability or incapacity.
