Ms. Nagel has been in the full-time practice of law for over 23 years, with experience spanning Tallahassee, Chicago, Austin, and Central Florida. In 2005, she opened the doors to Merideth Nagel, P.A. with a clear focus — serving her community with integrity and purpose. Since then, her practice has centered on helping individuals, families, and businesses navigate complex legal matters with confidence. Her experience includes working with a wide range of clients and organizations, including a Florida Supreme Court Justice, financial institutions, developers, business owners, and individuals across Central Florida. A true Central Florida native, Merideth grew up in Clermont, with family roots in the community dating back to 1913. Today, her work continues to focus on serving Lake, Sumter, Orange, and Marion counties, with offices centrally located in Clermont. While her practice spans multiple areas of law, her passion lies in helping clients protect their assets, plan for the future, and build lasting legacies. Merideth is proud to be an attorney, but she does not define her success by titles or accomplishments. Instead, she measures it by her ability to help others. She is deeply committed to guiding clients through the often difficult legal paths of life and business, building relationships rooted in trust, respect, and genuine care. Her goal is not simply to provide legal services, but to create lasting relationships that extend far beyond a single transaction.
