Descripción
Personal injury attorney Jeff Adelman welcomes Constitutional law attorney Justin Pearson to his office for what promises to be a very enlightening, back and forth discussion of First Amendment rights,...
mostra másJustin is the Institute’s Florida Office Managing Attorney for the "Institute for Justice- Florida Office" and oversees the Institute’s national economic liberty efforts. Justin’s current cases include a major First Amendment challenge brought on behalf of a Maryland dairy farmer against the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s ban on honestly labeling additive-free skim milk as skim milk, as well as a state constitutional challenge brought on behalf of Florida food-truck owners against Fort Pierce’s 500-foot ban on competition.
Justin litigates on behalf of small-business owners across the nation, often winning in novel ways. He was the lead counsel in a federal appellate court victory vindicating the right of a Florida dairy creamery to tell the truth on its labels, which was the first victorious First Amendment challenge to a food standard of identity in U.S. history. His win against Little Rock’s ban on taxi competition was based on a provision in the Arkansas Constitution that had not been successfully relied upon in over half a century. And in Fort Pierce, Justin recently obtained the first preliminary injunction ever issued in a rational basis challenge anywhere in the nation.
In addition to litigation, Justin has testified to numerous Florida Senate and House committees on issues ranging from the constitutional implications of occupational licensing laws to the need for civil forfeiture reform, and provisions suggested by Justin have been enacted into law. On the local level, Justin has obtained municipal code revisions allowing greater access for food trucks.
In December, 2017, Justin was honored by the Daily Business Review and Law.com for being one of South Florida’s “Most Effective Lawyers.”
