    Michael has spent his entire professional career in the service of our nation, the great state of Florida, and the citizens of his community. Whether as a Prosecutor, as an active duty JAG officer, or in private practice, Michael has worked to preserve and protect the rights of everyday Americans. He formed the VanDerZee Law Group with a desire to provide top-notch and hands-on legal services to his hometown community. The firm concentrates its practice in civil litigation, family law, military law, landlord/tenant disputes, homeowner/condominium association law, wills, trusts & estate planning, contract law, and criminal defense. Michael started his career with the State Attorney’s Office for the Ninth Judicial Circuit in Orlando and Kissimmee, Florida. In his five years as a Prosecutor, he spent three as a lead felony prosecutor, responsible for handling career criminals and cases ranging from murder, aggravated assault, gun crimes, DUI Manslaughter, and drug trafficking. Michael handled all phases of the case from the investigatory stage through to the jury trial and verdict/sentencing. Michael was awarded the Mother’s Against Drunk Driving Prosecutor of the Year in 1997 for his work in prosecuting DUI offenses and in his education in alcohol awareness to college groups. After the attacks of 9/11, Michael and his wife made the decision to join the United States Air Force as a Judge Advocate. Michael was commissioned in December 2001, completed officer training in March 2002, and assigned to Elmendorf AFB, Alaska. While at Elmendorf AFB, Capt VanDerZee was the Officer-In-Charge of Legal Assistance and Readiness/Deployment; Administrative Law; Military Justice; and the base tax office. His leadership of the tax office led to record numbers of returns filed for military members and dependents, to include record refunds in excess $3.5 million. He was named the Wing Staff Company Grade Officer in 2003. His next duty assignment was at Randolph AFB, Texas as a Circuit Trial Counsel. As a CTC, Capt VanDerZee traveled extensively to handle high-profile courts-martial. He was the lead prosecutor for the Air Force in cases ranging from murder, child infanticide, child exploitation and abuse, drug offenses, and drug trafficking. He was a sought after instructor and educator on evidence, trial advocacy, and military law. At the conclusion of his tour, Capt VanDerZee and his family decided to leave active duty to return home to Central Florida. He continues to serve our nation as a member of the Florida National Guard. Upon returning home, Michael has worked in private practice since 2006, specializing in civil litigation, criminal defense, Military law, consumer law, HOA/community association law, and contract law. He has represented individual clients and corporate clients as both plaintiffs and defendants, including all phases of the process from investigations, filing/defending lawsuits, depositions, discovery, and trial. Michael has now opened the VanDerZee Law Group to serve the needs of those in his local community. Michael and his family chose the Lakeland area due to the community’s sense of service, strong military ties, and hometown values. Having been raised in southwest Michigan and attended college in Indiana, this community fits right into his core values.

    Simply Outstanding Service

    5

    My girlfriend was recently charged with a DUI. She had never been in any legal trouble previously and was quite terrified about the ordeal. To get the best legal representation possible, we consulted with several attorneys throughout the Bay area. It looked like we were facing a difficult decision, but then we met Michael. Mr. VanDerZee immediately impressed us. While he was both very personable and professional, he spoke the law with a commanding confidence that quickly put us at ease. Michael is the rare type of lawyer that will strike you as a genuine person with integrity, and actually possess those qualities. Throughout the case, Michael constantly kept us informed, he was always fast to respond, and we never had to communicate through a secretary. The quality of his service was simply outstanding. He didn't treat us like clients or defendants -- he treated us like people. If you want a great attorney with both character and amazing service, Michael VanDerZee is the one to call.
