Law Office of Carl G. Hawkins, PLLC
The Attorney
Carl G. Hawkins

Established 2017 · Jacksonville Area Florida
Carl G. Hawkins founded this business law firm to provide business owners and founders with attentive counsel across both disputes and transactions. The practice is structured around the reality that smaller clients often need the same quality of legal work as larger ones — and rarely receive it at large firms.
Business disputes, commercial litigation, and business counsel on formation, governance, contracts, and intellectual property. The same counsel can structure a transaction and stand behind it when a dispute arises.
Based in St. Johns County, Florida. Clients served throughout Florida for state law transactional matters. Intellectual property and select business matters handled nationally.
Earned a CALI Excellence for the Future Book Award in Intellectual Property Law and interned with the Fourth Circuit Public Defender's Office, assisting with juvenile delinquency matters, while a student at Florida Coastal School of Law.
Philosophy
The Approach
How the firm approaches business law —
across both disputes and transactions.
Resolution & Prevention
The firm handles disputes through litigation, arbitration, mediation, and negotiation — and structures transactions to prevent the next one.
Commercial Perspective
Counsel that accounts for what the client is actually trying to accomplish — resolving the matter, not running up the bill.
Continuity Across Deal & Dispute
The same attorney who drafts your agreements is positioned to enforce or defend them, keeping context on both sides of a problem.
Direct Counsel
A boutique practice built for attentive, ongoing counsel — without the overhead or impersonality of a large firm.
