Gutterman Trial Group is a Florida civil litigation firm dedicated to representing insurance carriers and their policyholders.  The practice encompasses an array of matters, including property, casualty, coverage, extra-contractual, subrogation, reinsurance, construction, marine and yacht, transportation and cargo claims.  The firm will be relocating from its current location at 200 East Broward Boulevard.

Cushman & Wakefield’s A.J. Belt and Jeff Holding represented the tenant, which was attracted to the 550 Building due to the new construction, flexible floorplans, and proximity to the new Broward County Courthouse.

Gutterman Trial Group will be joining office tenant Berger Commercial Realty and SOLO Shoppes retail tenants Legacy Fit and Bank of OZK. Berger Commercial will be relocating to a new, state-of-the-art office on the 4th floor.

Located at 550 S. Andrews Avenue, the building stands 7 stories tall, with 6 stories consisting of approximately 86,000 square feet of professional office space with an entire floor totaling approximately 12,500 square feet. The first floor is comprised of approximately 7,500 square feet of prime restaurant/patio space, of which ±4,400 square feet is currently available for lease. The adjacent parking garage will consist of 634 spaces, along with The SOLO Shoppes, which will comprise 13,000 square feet of traditional storefront retail. The entire project will total just over 100,000 square feet of commercial space in addition to the parking garage.

The property formerly housed the 32,500-square-foot Justice Building, which was purchased by Blackhawk in December 2013. Berger represented Blackhawk in its purchase and currently provides leasing and property management for the project.
