We’re excited to share that Anthony Guettler has been selected to present at The Florida Bar’s Wills, Trusts & Estates Certification Review Course in Orlando on March 20–21, 2026. This is an advanced, high-level program for attorneys preparing for board certification and for experienced practitioners who want a comprehensive review of the laws shaping today’s wills, trusts, and estates practice.

Anthony will be speaking on “Everyday Ethics for Wills, Trusts and Estates Lawyers,” a topic that goes to the core of what sophisticated clients and fiduciaries expect: sound judgment, clear guidance, and careful navigation of high-stakes, multi-party matters. Being invited to teach in this setting is a meaningful professional distinction, and a strong reflection of the depth of experience and leadership our Estate Planning & Tax Group brings to complex planning and administration across Florida.

We’re proud to support the Women’s Club of Vero Beach as they host their Prom Dress Drive and special shopping event for local high school students.

If you have a gently used prom dress, consider donating to help make prom night extra special for a student this year. Dress donations can be dropped off at our office:
979 Beachland Blvd. Vero Beach 32963
Monday – Friday between 9am – 5pm.

High school students who are facing financial barriers looking for a prom dress are invited to shop at the Women’s Club of Vero Beach on Saturday, February 21, 2026, from 3–7 pm.

New and gently used dresses will be available for free or at a minimal cost, thanks to a group of real-life fairy godmothers who want every student to feel confident and celebrated on prom night.

A beautiful reminder of how a simple act of generosity can make a lasting memory.

We were so happy to support Gifford Youth Achievement Center, Inc. this year and loved attending the Annual Gala, Runway Rendezvous, where futures take flight. It was a wonderful evening shared by Dillon and Sarabeth Roberts, Todd and Kathy Fennell, and Scott and Gail Alexander, all coming together for an important cause. It’s an honor to celebrate the youth and be part of such a meaningful event.

Dillon L. Roberts, Partner at Gould Cooksey Fennell, was recently featured in The Florida Bar Journal, one of the most respected legal publications in Florida.

Dillon’s article, “Upstream Basis Planning - The Estate Planner’s Income Tax Planning Tool,” examines a sophisticated estate planning concept that estate planners may consider when coordinating estate, gift, and income tax planning for certain families.

Publication in The Florida Bar Journal is a meaningful professional distinction. It reflects peer-level recognition for thoughtful legal analysis plus a commitment to advancing the profession through practical and high-level insight.

This also reflects what our Estate Planning & Tax Group is known for: high-level technical work, thoughtful problem-solving, and leadership in the profession. For 70 years, clients across Florida have relied on Gould Cooksey Fennell for that same standard of careful judgment and sophisticated counsel.
