About Carolyn Hendler

Carolyn Hendler, Esq.

I am an attorney licensed in Florida, New York, New Jersey, and Washington, D.C. I am currently based in Sarasota, Florida. I work with individuals, property owners, and small businesses on contract-based matters, business and real estate-related legal issues, and legal analysis designed to help clients make informed decisions and avoid unnecessary disputes.

Experience and Focus

My legal background includes civil litigation, appellate practice, contract drafting and review, and real estate-related legal work. Earlier in my career, I represented clients in trial and appellate courts and prepared legal briefs on complex issues involving property and commercial matters. That experience shapes how I approach legal issues today, with a focus on risk assessment, clarity, and practical outcomes.

How I Work

I take a direct, thoughtful approach to legal work. I focus on understanding the full context of a client’s situation, explaining legal issues in clear terms, and helping clients evaluate options before matters escalate. When a matter requires litigation or specialized expertise beyond the scope of my practice, I assist with referrals and remain available as a point of guidance and coordination.
