The Lacayo Law Firm Story

A family-founded firm built on trust, tenacity, and a deep commitment to the South Florida communities we serve.

Our Story

Built by Brothers. Driven by Justice.

Lacayo Law Firm was founded by brothers Gilberto and Christian Lacayo, first-generation Americans who grew up in Miami with a deep appreciation for the opportunities this country offers and a fierce determination to protect the rights of those who call it home.

Both fully bilingual in English and Spanish, Gilberto and Christian built their firm on a simple belief: that every person deserves access to exceptional legal representation, regardless of background. With over a decade of combined experience, they have fought tirelessly for clients across a wide range of legal matters, from personal injury and criminal defense to family law, bankruptcy, and immigration.

Today, the firm proudly serves clients throughout Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties, offering the personalized attention of a boutique practice backed by the knowledge, resources, and courtroom experience to handle even the most challenging cases.
