Blank Rome LLP is pleased to announce that it has opened an office in West Palm Beach, reinforcing the firm’s commitment to South Florida and one of the country’s fastest‑growing business markets.
Earlier this year, the firm announced the arrival of partners Mark D. Passler and Ryan L. Harding, who established a presence for Blank Rome in West Palm Beach and are based in the new office located at 222 Lakeview Avenue | Suite #1400 | West Palm Beach, FL 33401.
“South Florida continues to be a key market for our clients, and our newest office in West Palm Beach reflects our continued focus on meeting our clients’ evolving needs,” said Grant S. Palmer, Blank Rome’s Chair and Managing Partner. “We have served clients in South Florida for decades in the areas of finance, litigation, real estate, mergers and acquisition, labor and employment, intellectual property, matrimonial, tax, and trusts and estates, to name a few, and having an office in this vibrant and growing business community will help us support our clients who are based in or do business there.”
“Bringing Mark and Ryan on board was an important step in expanding our ability to serve clients in South Florida and we are thrilled to now have an office in West Palm Beach,” said Lawrence F. Flick II, Blank Rome’s Vice Chair and Chair of the Financial Services Industry Team. “Our work here has been very active over the past several years, with colleagues from across the country most recently handling high-profile trials, a number of significant real estate transactions, and complex acquisition and working capital financings representing our bank and private credit clients. As demand in the market continues to grow, we are actively meeting with exceptional talent and look forward to building out our West Palm Beach team to support the high‑level matters our clients entrust to us in the market.”
“We are excited to settle in and welcome clients into our new space in West Palm Beach,” said Passler. “Palm Beach County has quickly become a sought-after business destination, with many large companies and business leaders relocating here over the past several years. This office represents an important step for Blank Rome in the market, and we look forward to continuing expand here as we work with colleagues locally and across the country to support the increasingly sophisticated legal and business needs of our clients in the region.”
