As a young girl in the City of Brotherly Love, Michelle Hendler — today a partner in Shutts & Bowen — aspired to be a lawyer, and in Miami she has turned her dreams into a reality.

“I always knew that I wanted to be a lawyer, although I did not grow up surrounded by lawyers. I love the art of analyzing and of being an advocate, and I am fortunate to be able to do both as a lawyer.”
