Yale Taitz Freeman

Early involvement is the key when attorneys and their clients begin to suspect a civil matter or administrative inquiry may lead to a criminal investigation–or worse, indictment.

The focus of Yale T. Freeman, P.A. is complex criminal, civil and administrative litigation. With a reputation for strategic analysis, strong representation and smart solutions to complex issues, I represent individuals and companies accused of criminal activity, and facilitate investigations on behalf of victims of crime.

Business-related criminal matters and corporate internal investigations are among my areas of concentration. Often partnering with civil and transactional lawyers in the representation of their clients who are facing issues with potential criminal implications, I have handled many significant cases involving complex civil litigation with parallel criminal proceedings. I frequently act as an intermediary with law enforcement and administrative regulatory agencies in the resolution of those matters.

Selected by the Collier County Judiciary as the 2014 “Lion of the Law,” and included in Florida Trend magazine’s 2018 “Florida Legal Elite™,” I was the only attorney named by Super Lawyers® in the field of “White Collar Criminal Defense” between Tampa and Miami in 2018. I am also a 20+ year AV-Rated Attorney by Martindale-Hubbell, the country’s leading lawyer-rating service. An AV rating signifies an attorney who has “achieved the highest levels of professional skill and integrity.” Based on peer reviews, my AV rating indicates that the lawyers and judges with whom I work on a daily basis consider me among the best, not only for my legal skills, but also for the honesty and integrity that characterize my practice.

I am licensed and admitted to practice in the United States Supreme Court, various U.S. District Courts-Federal Courts, and all Trial and Appellate Courts in the State of Florida.

Main Practice Areas - the Defense and Investigation of:

• White-collar/Economic Crime
• Federal Grand Jury Inquiries
• Complex Civil Litigation

Yale T. Freeman, P.A. maintains offices in North Naples serving Southwest Florida, and in Miami.
