Gabriel F. Zambrano

Gabriel F. Zambrano is a longtime resident of South Florida and has practiced law throughout the state since 1994. He began his career handling commercial litigation and insurance defense cases from inception to resolution through mediation or trial. He holds an  AV rating  from the  Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating system .

His trial experience includes handling complex and catastrophic injury cases, as well as multiple trials that approached or exceeded thirty days in length. In 2011, he was invited to participate as co-counsel in an  Engle Tobacco trial , which resulted in one of the largest reported verdicts of that year. Today, he represents personal injury victims and assists individuals seeking justice. Mr. Zambrano gained national recognition as one of the first advocates for girls and women who suffered life-threatening blood clots, strokes, or heart damage from the use of  drospirenone-containing (DRSP) birth control pills , commercially successful drugs manufactured and marketed by  Bayer Healthcare Pharmaceuticals  under the brand names  Yasmin, YAZ, Beyaz, and Safyral .

Attorney Zambrano explains that his strong passion for helping victims and their families stems from his personal experiences as a  naturalized U.S. citizen and first-generation immigrant .

“I know how hard people have to work to get ahead and pursue their own version of the American Dream. Having your future derailed by an accident, a medication, or a defective product can completely change your life, and our civil justice system offers a potential remedy and a way to hold companies and individuals accountable. Experienced trial lawyers and advocates are the only way to level the playing field against insurance companies, pharmaceutical companies, or product manufacturers. Contingency fee contracts—no recovery, no fee—allow us to take the risk and use our resources to seek legal redress and create change on behalf of victims.”
