Corinne Suttlemyre, Associate Attorney
Corinne has been with us since she was a junior at Fletcher High School. We reached out to the director of their law program, Ed Lange, and he recommended her for the job. We could not be any happier! Corinne was a member of the Mock Trial team in high school while working here and participated in state and international level tournaments. She went on to graduate with honors from the University of North Florida where she majored in political science and Florida State University College of Law where she received her Juris Doctorate. While at FSU she worked with the Veteran’s Legal Clinic assisting veterans with their various legal dilemmas. While there she began researching veteran’s benefits and decided to incorporate it into her practice areas. Corinne has found her passion in helping disabled adults and children receive the benefits they so desperately need/deserve and does everything she can to make the process smooth and stress free for the clients. When she is not working, Corinne enjoys watching college football and relaxing.
