If I am not mistaken, all of the names on this list are Holland & Knight Attorneys. They are members of Juan Mayol's land use group, and it is entirely proper for the firm in this case to register all the attorneys in their group that may engage in lobbying activities at the County. There is no question, that there is a push to move the UDB, but besides Mayol, I don't see much punch in this group.
Batties, Leila, Akerman Senterfitt LLP
These lawyers are not the people I am worried about. when they hire one of the highly paid lobby creeps whose main power come from paying off the politicians then I worry. I did not see any of those names yet. Perhaps I never will. It is not impossible for the crooked bastards to work under cover and not register.
Exactly my point. I agree with you Mensa... In fact, I have always thought the Cone of Silence (a well intentioned piece of legislation proposed by Jimmy Morales)...
And Genius, I did not recognize Lelia Batties... You are right, she is with Ackerman....
Any law or policy is effective with those who will follow it... the rest are people who are too special to follow the rules.
As a result, the good guys are good, and the bad guys get ahead.
