Neil Mooney, Esq.
Neil’s fifty years of logistics experience started in international trade in 1972, working in cargo operations at JFK Airport. In 1978 he obtained his Customhouse broker’s license and in 1984 he established a successful customs brokerage, freight forwarding, bonded warehouse, and NVOCC operation in Miami. He had 27 years of international logistics experience prior to finishing law school with honors in 1998. Neil became a Florida Supreme Court Certified Mediator in 2015. He has three children and enjoys hiking, camping, canoeing, kayaking, and traveling to obscure historical sites worldwide.
The firm represents corporations as well as individuals. The practice is focused on federal administrative agency matters and litigation, including False Claim Act litigation. Any issue concerning Customs and Border Protection, or cross-border issues involving the Food and Drug Administration, the Federal Maritime Commission, the EAR, Census, or other export control agencies, regardless of location, is handled.
We have no “typical client” because each of you has unique legal and business needs. We seek win-win solutions, and stand ready to promptly seek redress in Federal or State courts when required. At the same time, we will exhaust all reasonable settlement avenues before suggesting litigation. Both Shannon and Neil are admitted to practice at The Court of International Trade in New York City and numerous other Federal courts nationwide, including courts of appeal, as well as all Florida courts.
