Brinkley Morgan Celebrates 50 Years of Legal Excellence, Growth and Mentorship
Brinkley Morgan, a full-service South Florida law firm with deep roots in the community, is proud to celebrate its 50th anniversary this year. What began in 1975 as a boutique firm with Michael Brinkley and Phil Morgan has grown into a dynamic firm with offices in Fort Lauderdale and Boca Raton.
Brinkley Morgan provides a full range of personalized legal services and business counseling to help clients achieve both personal and business goals. Over the past five decades, the firm has grown to meet the evolving needs of individuals and businesses, providing trusted counsel in areas such as marital and family law, business law, business litigation, real estate, and trusts and estates.
“Fifty years in practice is a testament to our staying power, especially as we continue adapting to a rapidly changing legal and business environment,” said John Lambros, Managing Partner at Brinkley Morgan. “Our team is forward-thinking, engaged, and deeply committed to maintaining the highest standards of service and integrity. I began my legal career at Brinkley Morgan as an associate, and I’m incredibly proud to now serve as Managing Partner. That journey reflects the firm’s dedication to mentorship and professional growth—values that have helped define our culture from day one.”
Brinkley Morgan’s legacy is built not just on legal acumen but on the strength of its people and a culture of mentorship that empowers younger attorneys to grow into leadership roles. The firm’s collaborative approach has helped cultivate generations of trusted advisors and skilled litigators, many of whom began their careers at the firm and advanced to become partners.
“What makes Brinkley Morgan truly stand out is our culture of collaboration and purpose,” said Phil Morgan, partner at Brinkley Morgan. “We’ve built a place where attorneys support one another, where mentorship is not just encouraged but expected, and where we measure success not only by legal victories, but by the positive impact we have on our clients and our community. That’s been our foundation for 50 years, and it’s what will carry us forward for decades to come.”
At our firm, professional growth is not just encouraged, it is actively supported by leadership. Attorneys are motivated to get involved in both professional and charitable organizations and to take on leadership roles within them. We strongly encourage pursuing Board Certification in one’s practice area and joining top-tier organizations aligned with each attorney’s expertise. Unlike many firms, we make a meaningful investment in these opportunities because we believe in developing leaders. This commitment to advancement distinguishes both our attorneys and our firm.
Community involvement remains a cornerstone of Brinkley Morgan’s mission. Through its Brinkley Cares initiative, the firm has consistently supported nonprofit organizations throughout Broward and Palm Beach Counties. From school supply drives to holiday giving programs and literacy initiatives, Brinkley Morgan continues to give back in meaningful ways, reinforcing its role as a civic-minded leader in the legal profession.
As Brinkley Morgan celebrates this milestone, the firm looks ahead to the future with the same entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to excellence that has guided it for the past 50 years.
