Attorney David Ruiz’s practice focuses on representing those injured at work.

David Ruiz grew up in Miami, Florida and attended high school at Christopher Columbus before graduating from Florida International University with a degree in Political Science. He was later admitted to Stetson University College of Law, wherein he graduated cum laude in 2014. While in law school, David served as a federal judicial intern for the Honorable Mark A.
