Blake attended the University of Miami School of Business Administration, graduating with a perfect 4.0 grade point average and ranking number one in his class. Blake went on to attend law school at the University of Miami. He graduated Magna Cum Laude and ranked in the top five percent of his graduating class. During each year of his legal education, he received the Dean's Merit Scholarship and the Florence Bayuk Foundation Scholarship. Both of these prestigious honors were awarded based upon his continued superior academic achievements.. Days after becoming a trial lawyer with Krupnick Campbell Malone in 2013, Blake was retained by an individual who sustained multiple orthopedic injuries and a traumatic brain injury in a bicycle vs. motor vehicle accident months earlier. Prior to Blake’s involvement, the injured man’s insurance carrier had entirely rejected his claim for underinsured motorist benefits, finding the bicyclist completely at fault for the collision. Within weeks, Blake obtained crucial evidence from overseas witnesses which had been hidden from the injured man by his own insurance carrier. This led to a recovery in excess of $3,000,000 within 60 days.. Since then, Blake has consistently obtained multi-million dollar recoveries for his client’s in catastrophic matters resulting in paralysis, spinal cord injuries, brain injuries, blindness, severe burns and many other types of life altering injuries or death. As a result, Blake has developed a unique understanding of what individuals go through when their lives are touched by disaster and has gained a broad knowledge of not only the purely legal, but also the medical, economic, social and psychological challenges which they may face as a result.. In 2016, upon invitation, Blake became a lifetime charter member of Rue Ratings’ Best Attorneys of America® which limits its membership to 100 lawyers per state.
