Firm
Profile: Since
its founding as Rosen and Jacobson in
1971, Jacobson, Sobo & Moselle has
evolved into Florida's preeminent
collections law firm, providing
collections throughout the state.
In
1971, Jim Jacobson and Errol Rosen,
two friends who had worked together at
a Hollywood law firm, decided to set
up their own general practice firm
called Rosen and Jacobson. (Jim lost
the coin toss.) Errol was responsible
for the real estate, wills, and
corporate practice, and Jim was in
charge of the litigation practice and
office management. After a few years,
Jim was contacted by a collection
agency that had been referred by one
of his clients. That client used the
collection agency for all of its
national collections except South
Florida, where they insisted on using
Jim's firm. The agency wanted to know
what law lists the firm was on so they
could send claims. At the time, Jim
had no idea what a law list or a claim
was. He got a copy of a law list and
contacted some local collection
attorneys-including Ted Sobo-to
educate himself on a collections
practice. Eventually, the firm became
listed on all the major law lists and
started receiving claims from most of
the major collection agencies in the
country.
Over
the years, the practice evolved from a
general practice firm into the
statewide collections law firm it is
today. Errol left to work with a major
real estate developer, and the
transactional practice was abandoned
altogether. For some 20 years, Jim has
concentrated his firm's efforts solely
on collections. With Jim at the helm,
the firm underwent a few name changes
throughout the years, but the focus
always remained the same. In 1997,
Justin came to work with his father,
and the firm name was changed to the
Jacobson Law Group. Meanwhile, Ted
Sobo's daughter, Robin Sobo Moselle,
joined her father's firm, which became
Sobo, Levine & Moselle.
In
2000, the Jacobson Law Group merged
with Sobo, Levine & Moselle to
form Jacobson, Sobo & Moselle.
With a combined history of more than
60 years, the firm can deliver what
few others even promise: Skilled and
experienced collection attorneys, who
get results.
