Legally Reviewed by Frank Marsalisi on August 31, 2026
In 2019, Marsalisi Law was selected for the Best of St. Petersburg Awards, a local recognition program that honors businesses the St. Petersburg community feels have earned a reputation for outstanding service. That distinction is part of our firm’s history in St. Petersburg, and it reflects values we have carried forward in the years since.
Marsalisi Law is a personal injury firm founded by Frank Marsalisi, and our commitment to the St. Petersburg community has continued well beyond that 2019 recognition. Since then, Frank has earned further professional recognition, and our firm remains active in the same community that first took notice of our work. You can read more about our firm and its history on our About Us page.
The 2019 Best of St. Petersburg Award
The St. Petersburg Award Program selects companies it feels have achieved outstanding success as a local business in the community. The program places a high value on companies that strengthen the image of local business through service to clients and the community, and it recognizes the businesses that help make St. Petersburg a place to work, live, and play.
Marsalisi Law’s selection in 2019 came early in the firm’s history, at a time when Frank Marsalisi was building the practice on the same principle that still guides it today: giving each client direct, personal attention rather than treating a case as a file number. You can learn more about the St. Petersburg Award Program on the Visit St. Pete/Clearwater best of winners page.
Frank Marsalisi’s Selection to the 2026 Florida Super Lawyers List
Recognition for our firm has continued in the years since 2019. In 2026, Frank Marsalisi was selected for the Florida Super Lawyers list, a peer-reviewed distinction that no more than five percent of attorneys practicing in Florida receive each year. Selection is based on peer nominations, independent research, and a peer evaluation process, and it is not something an attorney can apply for or purchase.
This selection reflects years of consistent work on behalf of injured clients throughout the greater Tampa Bay area, and it complements the community recognition Marsalisi Law received in 2019. You can read more about the selection process and what it means for our clients on our 2026 Florida Super Lawyers announcement, or learn more about Frank’s background on his attorney profile page.
Our Ongoing Involvement in the St. Petersburg Community
The community recognition Marsalisi Law received in 2019 was tied to more than casework. Frank Marsalisi currently serves as President of the Skyway Marina District and has served as Chairman of the Board of Trustees at St. Petersburg General Hospital. He is also a member of the Florida Justice Association, the Tampa Bay Trial Lawyers Association, the Tampa Bay Beaches Chamber of Commerce, and the St. Petersburg Chamber of Commerce, and he supports local organizations, including I Support Youth, Inc.
That level of involvement is part of why the firm was recognized in 2019, and it remains part of how we operate today. Our attorneys and staff live in the communities we represent, and that connection informs how we handle every case we take on.
Why Local Recognition Matters When Choosing a Personal Injury Lawyer
Awards and peer recognition are not a substitute for reviewing an attorney’s experience directly, but they can offer a useful data point. Recognitions like the Best of St. Petersburg Awards and the Florida Super Lawyers list are not self-nominated or purchased; they reflect an outside organization’s assessment of reputation, service, or professional standing.
For someone searching for a personal injury lawyer in St. Petersburg, that kind of third-party signal can help narrow the search, alongside client reviews and a firm’s track record. You can read what past clients have said on our reviews page or review examples of past results on our case results page.
