also known as Jamy Barreau
Raised in his hometown of Port St. Lucie, attorney Jamy Barreau has experience handling all aspects of issues surrounding preserving generational wealth including matters associated with trusts and estates as well as business planning. A first-generation Haitian American, he has dedicated his life to the practice of law. He graduated his high honors from St. Lucie West Centennial High School in 2009 where he had the privilege of being part of the school’s Criminal Justice Academy, serving as an advocate for the 19th Judicial Circuit’s Teen Court program.
After graduation from Centennial, Jamy earned his B.S. in Legal Studies from the University of Central Florida, earning his degree on a full-time basis while working full time at Universal Studios Orlando. After college, Jamy attended Barry University School of Law where he served on the editorial board of its Law Review Journal as a Research and Technical Editor. In 2017, he graduated from Barry Law and returned to the Treasure Coast, gaining experience in estate planning, trust administration, probate administration, business planning, residential mortgage foreclosures, and evictions. Understanding the impact generational wealth has on society and setting the stage for success in generations to come, Jamy made it his mission to guide those in his community in such matters. In 2021, he graduated with his LL.M. in taxation with a concentration in estate planning from Boston University School of Law to further his mission.
In his free time, he is an adjunct professor of business law at Southern New Hampshire University and continues to expand his knowledge of how to best serve his community.

Truly professional
Jamy was proactive the moment I contacted him in regards my estate planning. I am not a native english speaker and with all legal terms it can get confusing. He was absolutely patience, attention to details, went above and beyond of what we expected. My husband and I highly recommend Jamy and his leg...
Thank you so very much for sharing your experience. It makes me proud to know that I've done right by my clients!
