I have lived almost my entire life in South Florida. I obtained my undergraduate degree in Psychology from the University of Florida. I graduated with Honors. I obtained my Juris Doctor from Nova Southeastern University. I have represented hundreds of people who have been injured in car accidents. Car accident injuries may include brain injuries, broken bones and spinal cord injuries. These are serious and life changing injuries. I strive to obtain the maximum possible settlement on personal injury cases for my clients. I do everything that I can to help get my clients money for their medical expenses, pain and suffering and lost wages. I also practice criminal defense. I have represented over 1,000 people charged by the State of Florida with misdemeanors, felonies and violations of probation. I strive to get every case dismissed. When I am not practicing law, I enjoy reading, exercising, playing poker and spending time with my family. I became a lawyer because I wanted to help people who were facing difficult challenges in their lives.

I have known Attorney Bottari for a number of years. I have seen him practicing, interacting with clients and working hard to get them the best possible outcomes. He is honest ... doesn't try to sell you something, but rather thoughtfully looks over your case, discusses with you the possible strategies in your case, and once you decide to move forward with that which works best for you, he executes the plan. I have great trust in his legal abilities, his ethics and his dedication to his clients.
