Our Vision

To be the cornerstone for advocacy, generosity, and exceptional service, changing lives in the communities we serve.

Our Mission

We support clients through their most challenging life events by fighting and advocating for all of their needs as if they were our own family.

Core Values
FAMILY FOCUSED
Our loved ones deserve the best version of us, and we’re at our best when we excel both at work and at home. We believe in working hard to achieve excellence, knowing that success in the office empowers us to show up fully for our families. By fostering balance, meaningful connections, and shared purpose, we create a ripple effect giving our best at work so our loved ones receive our best at home. We treat clients, colleagues, and partners like family because strong relationships are at the heart of everything we do. Family inspires us to thrive and reminds us why we strive for greatness.
STRONGER TOGETHER BETTER EVERYDAY
We thrive through teamwork and collaboration, knowing that together we achieve more. By combining our unique strengths, talents, and perspectives, we create better solutions and deliver exceptional results. We are dedicated to growth—both as individuals and as a team—striving to learn, improve, and become better every single day. United in purpose, we push each other to new heights, knowing our greatest successes are built together.
OWN IT, DO IT.
The buck stops here. We take full ownership of both our failures and successes, learning from each to continually improve. We do what we say—we honor our commitments and follow through on our promises. We show up and show out, bringing our best selves to every endeavor. We deliver results, not excuses, embracing challenges with a proactive and can-do attitude. "Own It, Do It" means being accountable, reliable, and driven to make a tangible impact in all that we undertake.
EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE
We are here to serve. Our clients are at the heart of everything we do. Providing a compassionate, personalized, and outstanding experience is not just our duty—it’s our privilege. We go above and beyond to ensure every interaction is meaningful, every need is met, and every client feels valued, supported, and cared for like family. Exceptional service isn’t what we do; it’s who we are. We are the 5 Star Law Firm.
COMMITMENT 2 COMMUNITY
We are more than a law firm—we are a dedicated partner to the community we serve. Our commitment goes beyond cases and courtrooms; we strive to make a lasting, positive impact by giving back, creating opportunities, and fostering growth. We believe in a "boots on the ground" approach, serving alongside our community as changemakers who contribute not just financially but also with our time, talents, and presence. Through genuine engagement and acts of service, we aim to build a legacy that endures far beyond settlements and verdicts—a legacy of hope, support, and meaningful change for generations to come.

Carissa Elliott

Some law firms are all about the money; they work independently, and the focus is individual production. This really couldn’t be further from the Core Values of V&B. The Viles & Beckman team is client focused and understands that an exceptional, personalized experience is our shared duty and responsibility. We thrive on teamwork and collaboration. We care for our clients as we would our own families.

If you are wanting to work in a family dynamic environment where every single team member is all in. This is the place to apply. So, bring in team player, all-in, empathetic vibes and you will fit right in.

Maria Hamlin

Intake Specialist

What makes our workplace stand out from the rest?
Our workplace was founded from a place of intent. Our partners and owners of the company created the atmosphere here because of their personal experiences and seeing other companies crumble. They looked and observed others to see what they could change in the way companies are run to have a place of enjoyment and did just that. They wanted to create an atmosphere where their employees couldn’t wait to come to work, where they love what they do, and where they have a passion for impacting lives around the state of Florida.

At Viles & Beckman, we have leaders that don’t just stand behind us to push us along. They stand before us, guiding and leading us to become the best we can be in our teams. Our workplace stands out because of the friendship, teamwork, and leadership we have in place. That’s what makes our workplace different, passion for people and the passion to fight for justice.”
