In 2010, Mark Alexander, Kelly DeGance, and Michelle Barnett co-founded Alexander DeGance Barnett, also known as ADB Legal, working as equal partners. The trio met while working together at the law firm of Holland & Knight — a prestigious, international law firm.
They shared similar values of client service, excellence, and unwavering dedication. Their goal was to offer a personal approach to local Jacksonville clients, using the experience and skills they’d gained at a global firm. The partners also sought to offer specialized legal services focused only on labor and employment litigation, to guarantee clients the top expertise in the field.
Today, the firm has grown to include multiple associates and paralegals, all experts in employment law. The team’s dedication to transparency, responsiveness, and excellence remains the same.
