Florida Administrative Law Attorneys Protect Your Due Process Rights
Experienced representation in Fort Myers for agency hearings and appeals
Administrative law is composed of the rules, regulations and procedures established by federal and state agencies to accomplish their missions. While these “regs" may be created with the best intentions, they may seriously threaten your constitutional right to due process. The attorneys at Mahshie & DeCosta have {EXP_YEARS} years of experience appearing before numerous federal and state agencies, including:
- U.S. and Florida Environmental Protection Agencies

When you face an administrative hearing, you need the assistance of skilled attorneys who have experience with the specific agency involved.
Guarding against unchecked power
While agency regulations carry the force of law, elected representatives of the people do not vote to enact them. Rather, appointed officeholders create “regs" under basic guidelines in the federal Administrative Procedure Act or a state equivalent. Moreover, federal and state agencies have the power to adjudicate, so citizens in dispute with an agency may have their cases heard by a central office of administrative hearings or before the very department with which they are in conflict. In a system where an agency functions as the executive, legislative and judiciary all rolled together, you need strong advocates at Mahshie & DeCosta on your side.
