We not only work in the communities of our clients, but we also work with the communities and their stake-holders on a pro bono and volunteer basis. It's an important focus for our firm and we employ a Community Outreach Coordinator to lead those efforts.
Alex Sutton is the Community Outreach Coordinator for Del Galdo Law Group. In such capacity, he is responsible for strengthening the firm's partnerships with various local organizations and communities in the area, as well as advising on political campaigns for local, state, and federal elections. He earned his undergraduate degree from Florida International University in Miami, Florida, where he served as a member of the university's Board of Trustees. Prior to joining Del Galdo Law Group, Alex served as the campaign manager of a countywide political campaign, and has advised and consulted on over a dozen other political campaigns.
