At WPL, it is very important to us to do our part in keeping employees, clients and guests as safe as possible as we track federal and local guidelines regarding Covid19 at all times. We offer in office, telephonic and/or video meetings with our clients and colleagues. Additionally, we are happy to meet you in an open-air area outside of our offices for a one-on-one meeting upon request. Our offices provide protective shields in the reception areas, air filters scattered throughout, several sanitizing stations, regular janitorial cleanings, and face coverings are regularly worn upon request. Additionally, we are fully equipped to hold hearings and trials with the Courts from our offices via Zoom video conferencing. As always, if you are unwell or are experiencing any flu like symptoms, please reschedule your in-person appointment with us.

– Our History –

In 1971, Arthur V. Woodward, Esq. founded the first law firm on Marco Island, Florida which emphasized the importance of a superior work ethic, collegiality and respect among our peers, and a social conscience that commands participation in opportunities for the good of the public. These guiding principles formed the tradition of excellence that the attorneys and staff at WPL work hard to uphold today.
