​Background:
​

Mrs. Cassel is a partner and co-founder of Cassel & Cassel, P.A.  She began her legal career practicing as an Assistant State Attorney in Broward County, Florida. While working at the State Attorney’s Office, she prosecuted serious felony offenses and tried over forty jury trials to verdict. Upon entering private practice, she worked for approximately four years in the field of first party property insurance defense where she practiced in both State and Federal Court with an emphasis on coverage, liability, and bad faith for various domestic and international insurance carriers.  She also regularly meets with and educates Florida lawmakers on issues related to policyholder rights.  Mrs. Cassel’s proficiency in defending insurance companies against property claims has been instrumental in her ability to effectively represent policyholders in litigation against their insurers.
