Marisol Bodero concentrates her practice on sophisticated civil litigation and appellate advocacy in both state and federal courts. She represents clients in commercial, business, and international disputes at all stages of litigation, from pre-suit strategy and trial court proceedings through appeal. Ms. Bodero has substantial experience briefing and litigating matters before Florida’s District Courts of Appeal, the United States District Courts, and the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit. Her practice is particularly focused on identifying and navigating complex legal issues and developing strategic approaches tailored to each stage of a dispute.

Ms. Bodero also has significant experience in international and interstate family law matters, including cross-border custody disputes, jurisdictional issues under the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA), and complex divorce and domestic relations matters involving parties, assets, or legal issues spanning multiple jurisdictions.

Earlier in her career, Ms. Bodero developed extensive experience handling mortgage-related litigation, fraud and misrepresentation claims, consumer disputes, real estate matters, and title insurance litigation. That broad litigation background continues to inform her practical and strategic approach to complex disputes.

A native of Guayaquil, Ecuador, Ms. Bodero earned her first law degree from the Universidad Católica de Santiago de Guayaquil School of Law before emigrating to the United States. Her education and experience in a civil law jurisdiction provide her with a valuable perspective when advising clients in matters involving international disputes, cross-border legal issues, and differing legal systems.

Ms. Bodero later earned her J.D., cum laude, from Nova Southeastern University Shepard Broad College of Law, where she served as Notes and Comments Editor of the Nova Law Review. She received the Book Award in Legal Writing and a Merit Scholarship Award in recognition of her academic achievement.

Outside of her legal practice, Ms. Bodero is deeply committed to the Jacksonville community. She volunteers through the Lunch Buddies mentoring program at West Riverside Elementary School, where she has built a long-term mentoring relationship with a student and supports her academic and personal development. She also combines her love of community and creativity by transforming her home each year with elaborate Halloween and Christmas displays that bring neighbors together while raising funds for local charitable organizations.
