Shubin Law Group advises municipalities, government agencies, educational institutions, and private clients that interact with government on matters of administrative, constitutional, and local government law. Working closely with The Euclid Group – whose principals include a former city planning and zoning director and city manager – our team brings together attorneys and consultants with firsthand experience in public service, including the former city attorney of Tampa, Jim Shimberg. This perspective gives us a deep understanding of the political, procedural, and regulatory dynamics that shape decision-making at every level of government.
Our lawyers are frequently retained by municipalities, counties, and school boards as special counsel for master planning, ordinance drafting, procurement, ethics, and regulatory compliance. We assist with unsolicited proposal review, contract negotiation, and day-to-day counsel on Sunshine and public records laws, election law, and constitutional issues. For private entities appearing before public bodies, we provide strategic guidance to ensure their projects move forward transparently and in alignment with local priorities.
Representation of Educational Institutions
We represent school districts, private schools, and universities, as well as the private entities that do business with or before them. Our work includes advising on campus master planning, procurement and contracting, construction and permitting, and compliance with state and federal education regulations. We also assist school boards and administrators in navigating regulatory, operational, and governmental challenges unique to the education sector.
Our combined perspective spanning law, policy, and planning, positions us to help clients build and manage complex civic and institutional projects, including mixed-use districts, educational facilities, and community infrastructure. Whether advising a government agency, a public-private partnership, or an institution shaping its next phase of growth, Shubin Law Group and The Euclid Group deliver practical solutions grounded in a deep understanding of how government works.
