My name is Geoff Hoatson and I’m the founder of the Family First Firm. I grew up in Central Florida surrounded by all my extended family. Both of my grandfathers were veterans of World War II and my paternal grandfather received the Purple Heart and Silver Star from Fleet Admiral Nimitz for his heroism as a medic on the Pacific Front. I gained a deep respect for our service members and my elders, while listening to them recount their time in the service. I knew that I wanted to help these people I admired so much. Unfortunately, over the years, both grandfathers ended up with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. My paternal grandfather was able to be qualified for Medicaid and my maternal grandfather was able to receive benefits from the VA. To call these benefits a blessing is a massive understatement; they allowed both of my grandmothers to age in their homes with dignity.. Born and raised in the Orlando area, I attended a local high school and then the University of Central Florida. It wasn’t until I went to Emory University for law school that I left Central Florida for the very first time. However, that choice was an easy one, because Emory is ranked as one of the top law schools in the country and has one of the preeminent estate planning programs. After graduating from Emory, I returned to Orlando to marry my fiancée, start a family, and begin the practice of law.. In 2009, I decided to go out on my own and open the Family First Firm to help seniors and service members protect themselves, their families, and their legacies from the unique problems that our seniors face.  We are proud to have helped countless families achieve their goals and gain peace of mind. We would be honored to help you too.

If you are reading this, you have likely hired my office for your case or you are searching for the best lawyer for your case. I sincerely believe that before hiring ANY lawyer you need to know something about them beyond the basic information like where they went to school, what organizations they belong to, how many years they have been a lawyer, etc.. Hiring a lawyer is, in many cases, a very intimate decision since many legal cases are about the impact of an event on you and your family. It's very personal. If we are to work together in a legal case, it is important to get to know each other!. In my case, you should know that the most important thing in my life is my wife, Joan and my five children.  They are the lights of my life. I met my wife, Joan at a Methodist church picnic. Fun fact: We were married in and still attend that church today. I was raised on a dairy farm in Central New York where I worked for my Dad and Grandfather. Being raised on a farm, I am no stranger to hard work. In addition to farm work, my brothers and I had a paper route and delivered the Syracuse Herald Journal 7 days a week!. I have had a variety of life experiences, from serving in the United States Army Infantry (1/41st Infantry Battalion, 2nd Armored Division), to serving two Members of Congress in Washington D.C. I have practiced law in Central Florida for over 27 years, representing thousands of consumers in large and small, simple and complex legal cases in Florida, New York, District of Columbia, Georgia and Michigan.. I started Coye Law Firm in 1991 (then known as the Law Office of Wade Coye) and over the years, I have developed a multi-disciplinary expert legal team that I am very proud of. My team and I handle cases as diverse as personal injury, workers' compensation, disability, probate and family law. We have recovered millions on behalf of our clients.. My goal is to be helpful with a client's legal matters. In fact, my practice areas and my office revolve around our efforts to help our clients. Many times I find that a client may actually have several legal matters that have arisen from one incident and in order to get a better result we find it best to coordinate efforts. For instance, if a person was working while driving a motor vehicle and was in an accident, this injured person could have a workers' compensation case, a personal injury case, a no-fault case, possibly a social security disability case, a long term disability case and possibly a case against their health insurance company. In some cases, a person may even have a family law matter that has been somewhat caused by the loss of income from an accident. We find the same applies when there has been a death.. This type of case requires both a probate action and a wrongful death suit, along with other areas of the law to coordinate.  The interrelationship between these practice areas means if your lawyer doesn't understand each area well and coordinate benefits appropriately, you, the client may not receive the best result.. So now that you know a little about me, I want to leave off by saying I value our relationship and work to completely understand the impact of a legal case on you, which I believe is invaluable to obtaining the best result possible for you. You will find that my advice will be direct and straight forward, as if, in some cases, I was making a decision with a family member.

I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Legal Studies from the University of Central Florida and a Juris Doctorate from the Barry University School of Law.. I began my career with the O’Mara Law Group while still in law school, working as an intern. After being admitted to the Florida Bar, I remained with the firm and practiced in the areas of Criminal Defense and Civil Rights and also assisted in the creation and launching of the 2nd Amendment Prepaid Legal Services Program. I then worked for a large Orlando-based firm, practicing insurance defense but returned to the O’Mara Law Group where I now practice in Criminal Defense and Civil Rights.. Prior to pursuing a career in the legal industry, I served my country in the United States Army for eight years, where I worked in military law enforcement, serving as a criminal investigator and a traffic accident investigator. Additionally, I am a combat veteran of Operations Iraqi and Enduring Freedom.. While in law school, I served as the Director of Interschool Competitions for the Moot Court Honors Board and Executive Editor/Business and Public Relations Editor for the Child and Family Law Journal. Additionally, I graduated Cum Laude, in the top 10% of my class.

I have tried a number of cases to verdict and have a great deal of experince representing injured people.  This coupled with my prior experience representing manufacturers and insurance companies gives me keen insight into how best to represent my clients.  Since 2002, I have only represented injured people..

I have been an attorney since 2000. I love my career because I enjoy helping people with their legal problems and navigating through the legal system.  I was a paralegal prior to attending law school at a labor and employment firm, and I knew I wanted to do more to help people problem solve; I wanted to be the voice when they were unable to speak up for themselves.  I relocated to Florida to attend the University of Central Florida where I obtained my Bachelor’s Degree in English Literature before I received my Juris Doctorate Degree from Nova Southeastern University.  I started my attorney career as a prosecutor in Orange County Florida.  I prosecuted cases in Criminal Traffic, Misdemeanor, Juvenile and Felony before I went into private practice.   I enjoy problem solving for my clients, and ensuring that their due process rights are not being violated.  I practice in Family Law, Collaborative Law, Adoption (domestic) Bankruptcy, Criminal Defense, Dependency and Wills.  Our team at Schwam-Wilcox & Associates strives to do our very best at all times, and to be sure to serve the needs of our clients.  Our client's feel as if they are our only client, and they are always important to us.  We pride ourselves on communication and attention to detail.  We appreciate every opportunity to assist people with their legal needs.  Our team is also very active in the legal and non-legal community.  Schwam-Wilcox & Associates holds 2 food drives each year to help fill a local food pantry to ensure the members of our community have something to eat for themselves and their children.  Our team volunteers to perform legal work for the people who qualify and for children who need a voice.. I am not only an attorney, but I am also a Florida Supreme Court Family Law Certified Mediator and a Guardian Ad Litem.  I like to help people in their time of need, I like to change my clients’' feelings of despair into hope and joy.  Legal matters are very stressful, emotional and can be expensive; however, if you have an attorney on your side that you can trust, you will be in a better place during your legal challenges.  I am honest, upfront, trustworthy, and I would appreciate the opportunity to work with you to achieve your legal goals.  I cannot make any promises regarding an outcome in your case; however, I can promise to give you respect, diligence, the truth (if you want to hear it or not, there is no "candy-coating") hard work and dedication to your case.  You will never be a number, and you will always be able to reach part of your team to discuss your case..

I am in my 20th year as an attorney and before that, I worked as a paralegal for many years prior to attending law school.  I handle commercial and civil litigation matters (non-personal injury related), but I focus on bankruptcy and creditor rights on both sides (debtor and creditor).  I have worked for a 4-attorney firm, a 120+-attorney firm, the Department of Justice and a 35-attorney firm, so I bring a wide level of experience.

After nearly three years as a prosecutor, Mr. Bartzokis was recruited to join the prestigious law firm of Jaeger, Ali, & Blankner; now Ali & Blankner.  At the firm he has focused largely on criminal defense, family law, and personal injury work.  The major focus of his work is litigating in courtrooms all throughout Central Florida.  He also has written countless motions and appeals in furtherance of client representation.  Mr. Bartzokis has settled various personal injury cases to the satisfaction of his clients and also handled family law matters ranging from divorce, custody, paternity, and marital contract disputes.. Growing up in a traditional Greek Family in the Boston area, Mr. Bartzokis has lived his entire life with strong moral beliefs in integrity, family, religion, and the law. His father and uncle, who are both lawyers, instilled the value that every person remains innocent until proven otherwise. From the early years of his life up to his graduate years, he spent part of his time as a martial arts instructor and NCAA Division I wrestling recruit. These leadership roles along with strong family and community ties have molded an aggressive and fearless advocate for anyone he represents.
