Carlos del Amo is the founder and president of The Law Office of Carlos del Amo, P.A. Born in Havana, Cuba on September 26, 1953, he is the second oldest child of Carlos Blas and Olga Perez. 

 

On April 17, 1961, Cuban freedom fighters invaded Cuba in an attempt to overthrow Fidel Castro. The assault ended in disaster. Olga was working for the American Embassy at the time and was given immediate residency for the entire family. Believing that the ill-fated invasion would shortly be followed by another successful one, Carlos Blas, on April 29, 1961, sent his seven year old son and eleven year old daughter with their mother to the United States for a short stay. He has been in the United States for over 55 years and is a United States citizen.

 

After attending Loyola College in Baltimore, Maryland, Carlos del Amo studied at Florida International University and graduated in 1976 with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. He began a master's program in psychology at Barry College but had to leave the program before completion to support his family. In 1985, at the age of thirty-two, he returned to school, this time to earn his J.D. from the University of Miami, graduating in January, 1988. He became an attorney in September of that same year.

 

From the age of eighteen to his entry into law school, He was a businessman with such diversified pursuits as a shoe and handbag manufacturer, designer and importer; a nationwide wholesaler of handbags; a cold storage manager; a meat broker; a grocery store owner; a real estate broker; and a mortgage broker.

 

His law career began with the law firm of High Stack Lazenby and Palahach. For the next seven years, he was a litigator for the firm, first as an associate and later as a partner. In 1996, He opened his own offices in Coral Gables. I am "AV" rated by Martindale-Hubbell  and is a Member of the Million Dollar Advocate Forum.

MORE THAN I EXPECTED
I know Carlos Del Amo as a lawyer over 18 years. He is not my personal friend but it makes me feel like I was, have a case with a big company is not easy but it's worse if you're Hispanic. His experience, honesty and loyalty made me not hesitate to contact Carlos Del Amo to represent me in this case. He did more than I expected. I recommend Carlos Del Amo to everybody strongly In Miami there are many lawyers but none as Carlos Del Amo.

Excellent
Mr. Del Amo has proven to be a very diligent and thorough Attorney. He fights for you with passion and guides you through the process with honesty and integrity. He does not steer you promising unrealistic results, instead he takes the times to explain all possible scenarios for you to understand the case along with any possible challenges. I would strongly recommend him to any and all of my friends with confidence that he will do what is in their best interest.
