P.J. Mitchell

Founding partner of a full-service litigation firm that runs personal injury, criminal defence and family law side by side. Twenty-four years at the Florida bar with no discipline in the window Florida publishes.

The bar record

What ten years does and doesn’t cover

The Florida Bar publishes a 10-Year Discipline History. Not a career — ten years. That is the single most important thing to understand about every Florida listing on this site.

P.J. Mitchell was admitted 17 October 2001. Ten published years is roughly 42% of that career. The remaining 58% is not a suspicion of anything — it is simply a period The Florida Bar does not publish, and we are not going to present a partial window as a whole one.

The same limit is why Gerson’s listing reports a 2018 suspension and says plainly that everything before 2016 is outside what we can see.

Background

His bio claims admission to the State Bar of Louisiana as well as Florida, and says he practises in state and federal courts in both. His Florida register entry does not record other states, so Louisiana is unchecked.Reported

The bio describes over three years as an Assistant Public Defender in Miami-Dade before founding the firm, a J.D. from Florida Coastal School of Law in 2000, and a term as president of the Coral Gables Bar Association in 2020-21.Reported

A client testimonial on the firm's site quotes a specific settlement figure. We print no settlement figures, from any firm.Reported
