The Fiorentino Group provides excellent government relations services and did an outstanding job guiding Vestcor’s proposed DRI through the approval process at the local and state level.

When I resigned as President of the University of Florida in 1989, I had an opportunity to resume my law practice in Jacksonville. One of the first professionals I worked with was Marty Fiorentino, at that time an in-house specialist in governmental and public relations. He later founded The Fiorentino Group, a private consulting organization with a track record that is unsurpassed in the field of client representation in private and public sectors.
