Mr. Arcadier earned his B.A. in Economics from the University of Florida in 1994.

Following graduation, Mr. Arcadier began his career with Andersen Consulting (now Accenture), where he provided legal risk management services for Fortune 500 companies. In 1999, he founded his own law firm, initially serving as a general practitioner before narrowing his practice to business and employment law in 2006. He has since represented clients in significant cases, including whistleblower claims, collective action FLSA disputes, and class action discrimination lawsuits, many of which have drawn national media attention.

Licensed before the U.S. Supreme Court, the Florida Supreme Court, the U.S. District Courts for the Southern and Middle Districts of Florida, and the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, Maurice Arcadier brings a wide-reaching perspective to his practice.
