Okeechobee City Is the 19th Circuit’s
Western Anchor — and We
Appear There.

Okeechobee City is the county seat of Okeechobee County and the only incorporated city in the county, sitting on the northern shore of Lake Okeechobee. The city serves as the commercial and legal hub for one of South Florida’s most rural counties. US-441 (North Parrott Avenue) runs through Okeechobee City and is the primary north-south corridor, while SR-70 is the main east-west route connecting Okeechobee to the Treasure Coast and the Gulf Coast. Both corridors generate significant auto accident litigation and DUI enforcement.

All Okeechobee County legal proceedings — criminal, civil, and family — are heard at the 19th Judicial Circuit Courthouse at 312 NW 3rd St, right in the heart of Okeechobee City. Jeff Gorman’s years as an ASA in this circuit give him a familiarity with these courtrooms, judges, and prosecutors that attorneys who occasionally visit from outside the circuit simply don’t have. We are in the 19th Circuit’s courts regularly — and Okeechobee City is within our circuit.
