A careless driver skids through a rain-slick intersection and plows into your car. A poorly-maintained machine catches your hand during your last shift at the build site.

A distracted anesthesiologist keeps your loved one under a little too long for a routine procedure, causing irreversible brain trauma.

The Diaco Legacy
Diaco Law is a firm built on family values – compassion, loyalty, candor, and fierce protectiveness of our employees’ and clients’ well-being. The Diaco family – which quite literally includes family members Joseph F. Diaco, Jr. (“Jay”, the managing partner), his brothers Dan Diaco and Stephen, and his first cousin Scott Arthur – has been serving the Tampa Bay area for decades in the legal field.
Jay has a long history as a highly skilled trial lawyer, dating back to his leadership on Stetson University Law School’s trial team and extending through his decades of private practice marked by numerous successful settlements and jury trials. Since graduating from Georgetown Law 20 years ago, Scott Arthur has devoted his practice solely to representing victims of negligence and policyholders who have been mistreated by their insurance companies. Not to be outdone, “Doctor Dan, Esq.” has served the community in the fields of medicine and the law, bringing a deep understanding of the nature and severity of the injuries suffered by our clients by drawing from his decades of practice as a board-certified plastic surgeon.
Like any family, the Diaco family has been through its own trials and tribulations, and understands our clients come to us when they are at their most vulnerable, experiencing pain, grief, anxiety, and confusion. Diaco Law’s team shows empathy and compassion as we work to understand each client’s unique concerns and challenges, providing counsel and advice based on our decades of experience, and then fighting relentlessly to maximize their financial compensation.
Dedicated to the Injured – Not Insurance Companies
Diaco Law does not represent insurance companies, and its sole focus is on helping injured parties recover the maximum compensation possible for the negligence of others. Diaco Law has a strong track record of successfully handling complex legal matters like car accidents, medical malpractice, catastrophic personal injury and wrongful death, product liability, and unfair insurance claims practices. The firm has handled aviation accidents, commercial vehicle accidents, motorcycle accidents, pedestrian accidents, dog bites, slip and falls, insurance bad faith and so much more.
If someone is injured and wants to feel the support of a family and be treated with dignity and respect as an individual, rather than being passed off from one lawyer to another as a faceless commodity, they retain Diaco Law. We have seen countless clients enter through our doors, overwhelmed, traumatized, in tears of despair – and after our work is done, exit our doors in stride, smiling, with tears of joy and relief.
That is why we have so many former clients who have recommended their friends and loved ones to us in times of need, and nothing makes us prouder than former clients entrusting their loved ones to the Diaco Law family.
