TAMPA, Fla (PRWEB) March 03, 2014 -- The international law firm Greenberg Traurig today announced that the Litigation Practice Group of its Tampa office has been named a 2014 “Litigation Department of the Year” by the Daily Business Review/American Lawyer Media. The team was recognized in the real estate category for the results it achieved on behalf of clients, such as Mosaic Fertilizer LLC, the world’s largest vertically integrated phosphate mining company, and LDRV Holdings Corp., the world’s largest recreational vehicle dealership. The team was selected based on evaluation of its litigation results from Jan.1, to Dec. 31, 2013. Client references and the amounts at issue in each case also were considered. The firm will be recognized at an event for all honorees at 6 p.m. March 26 at the Westin Harbour Island Hotel, 725 S. Harbour Island Blvd., in Tampa, Fla.
