Awards
April 8, 2026

Miami, FL – Bilzin Sumberg is pleased to announce that Adrian K. Felix, Trial & Litigation Partner, has been selected to the 2026 Franchise Times "Legal Eagles" class.

This annual honor recognizes leading attorneys in the franchise sector, selected through nominations and recommendations from clients, peers, and fellow legal professionals. "Legal Eagles" are acknowledged as industry leaders and are distinguished for their consistent delivery of outstanding legal service.

Adrian focuses his practice on complex commercial litigation across various industries, including franchising, real estate, construction, and hospitality. He has significant experience representing both franchisors and franchisees in high-stakes disputes, advising on issues arising from franchise agreements, system standards enforcement, terminations, territorial rights, and brand protection. More broadly, he helps clients navigate multifaceted legal relationships and business dealings, regularly litigating matters involving breach of contract, fraud and misrepresentation, partnership disputes, deceptive and unfair trade practices, contract terminations, restrictive covenants, project delays, construction defects, and lien claims for domestic and international clients.

The selection process for "Legal Eagles" lawyers is determined by the quality and quantity of nominations received from clients and colleagues. Emphasis is placed on thorough nominations from clients and peers who are not from the same law firm. 

“I am honored to be recognized by Franchise Times among this year’s ‘Legal Eagles.’ This distinction reflects the trust our clients place in us to navigate complex franchise and commercial disputes, and I am proud to be part of a team that delivers practical, results-driven counsel in a dynamic and evolving industry.”
