The Law Offices of Frederick W. Nessler and Associates is proud to recognize Thomas J. Nessler, Managing Partner of our Largo, Florida office, on his selection to the National Trial Lawyers Top 40 Under 40.
This recognition is extended to attorneys who have demonstrated superior qualifications, leadership, and trial results within their respective states. Thomas was selected as a member of the Florida Central West chapter, a distinction that reflects both the quality of his legal work and the reputation he has built serving clients throughout the Tampa Bay area.
A Background Built on Service
Thomas J. Nessler is a personal injury attorney and trial lawyer dedicated to representing individuals and families during some of the most difficult moments of their lives. He earned a dual Bachelor of Science in History and Humanities from Jacksonville University in 2013, where he was also a member of the Men's Golf Team and a representative of the Student Activities Council. He went on to earn his Juris Doctorate from Florida Coastal School of Law in 2017.
Before building his legal practice, Thomas served as a Commissioner for the Town of Belleair, Florida. That experience in public office shaped the way he approaches his work today. He understands accountability, community responsibility, and what it means to make decisions that directly affect the people around him. Those values carry into every client relationship.
How Thomas Approaches His Practice
Thomas is licensed to practice in Florida, Illinois, and Missouri. He represents clients in a range of personal injury matters including car and automobile accidents, wrongful death cases, premises liability including slip and fall and negligent security, institutional and clerical abuse cases, and first-party insurance disputes for homeowners and commercial property owners.
What sets Thomas apart is not only the breadth of his practice but the way he handles each case. He is known for working directly with clients, keeping them informed and prepared at every stage of the legal process. In a field where clients often feel overwhelmed and uncertain, Thomas prioritizes clear communication and face-to-face interaction whenever possible.
As he has said of his own approach, his goal is to ensure that every client is informed, prepared, and confident throughout every stage of their case. That is not a marketing line. It is how he practices law.
What the Top 40 Under 40 Recognition Means
The National Trial Lawyers is a professional organization that extends membership by invitation only to the most qualified attorneys in each state. The Top 40 Under 40 designation is reserved for civil plaintiff and criminal defense attorneys who are 40 years of age or younger and who have demonstrated exceptional qualifications, leadership, and achievement in their field.
Being named to this list reflects the kind of sustained, results-driven advocacy that Thomas has brought to his clients in the Tampa Bay market and throughout his broader multi-state practice.
