The Floridant/10187333

FORT MYERS, Fla. - Floridant -- Henderson, Franklin, Starnes & Holt, P.A. is pleased to announce that Florida Civil Trial expert attorney Michael Corso has been selected by the Florida Engineering Society (FES) Calusa Chapter as its 2022 "Engineer of the Year." Corso will receive this honor at the FES Awards & Scholarships Banquet being held Wednesday, June 22 at Hilton Garden Inn in Fort Myers, Florida.

Not many lawyers can hold the title of "rocket scientist," but Corso can, having obtained his bachelor's degree in aeronautical and astronautical engineering from Purdue University. In fact in 2011, he received a call from the first man on the moon Neil Armstrong notifying him that he won the "Outstanding Aerospace Engineer Award," an honor bestowed on less than 2% of Purdue AAE graduates. Over the years, Corso has continued to support his alma mater by serving on the Industrial Advisory Council [IAC], which is comprised of impressive leaders in industry, government, military, and astronauts.

Today, Corso is Florida Bar Board Certified in Civil Trial law and Business Litigation law. He concentrates his practice in the defense of non-medical professionals (including lawyers, accountants, architects, engineers and surveyors), copyright/trademark infringement, product liability and tobacco litigation. Corso speaks throughout the United States on legal management, ethics and drone law.
