Charla Burchett

Firm: Shutts & Bowen LLP
1858 Ringling Blvd, Suite 300 , Sarasota , Florida 34236
Practice Areas: Probate
For over 30 years, I have drafted wills and trusts and administered estates and trusts in the Sarasota area. In 2001, I opened my own law office with a team of three employees.  After running my own office for over 13 years, I merged my firm into Shutts & Bowen LLP, a firm with eight offices throughout the state.  However, my office in Sarasota is a small office with seven attorneys.  Each person in my Trusts and Estates Department at Shutts believes it is our mission to guide clients through challenging decisions and difficult times to preserve their legacies across generations. My team is dedicated to providing outstanding service to our clients. We know that each client is more than just a name on a file folder. Our clients are individuals and families facing unique challenges and sometimes difficult decisions or situations. We understand. We guide our clients with compassion, understanding, and a true commitment to the highest professional standards and ethics. We strive to “go the extra mile” on behalf of our clients. This environment allows clients to feel at ease and comfortable in their decision to work with our team.. Of the more than 106,000 attorneys in Florida, I am one of only 342 in the state of Florida and one of only 28 in the Sarasota and Manatee Counties who have been certified by the Florida Bar as a Specialist in Wills, Trusts, and Estates. Board certification recognizes an attorney’s special knowledge, skills and proficiency in various areas of law and professionalism and ethics in practice. Certification is the highest level of evaluation by The Florida Bar of the competency and experience of an attorney.
