A pair of Southwest Florida law firms have promoted attorneys to partner-level roles. 

In one move, Fort Myers-based Henderson, Franklin, Starnes & Holt P.A. elected Madison Tanner as a stockholder. Tanner, according to a statement, began her career at the firm as a summer associate, and was later promoted to associate. “I have immense gratitude for having been voted in as a stockholder by my colleagues, " Tanner says in the release. 

With a focus on premises liability, Tanner’s litigation practice also involves personal injury defense, legal malpractice and insurance coverage matters. In addition she serves as general counsel for the Hendry County School District and School Board Attorney.
