Gunster, one of Florida’s oldest and largest full-service business law firms, is pleased to have been named the 2025 "Business of the Year" by the Palm Beach North Chamber of Commerce. Gunster CEO and Managing Shareholder Bill Perry accepted the award on behalf of the firm at the Chamber's annual leadership dinner, which aims to recognize and honor the exceptional leaders and businesses in Palm Beach North who are making a remarkable impact on our community.
Founded in 2007, the Palm Beach North Chamber of Commerce focuses on the development and retention of businesses by taking an active role in issues that affect the profitability of local companies, protecting and improving the quality of life for residents and, above all, providing superior services and resources to our members.
Over the years, Gunster attorneys have served the Chamber in various capacities, including late partner, Ed Tancer (Past Chair-Elect), whose passion and service left a lasting legacy. Gunster attorneys Kaitlin Guerin (Young Professionals Steering Committee Member), Mike Mitrione (Two-Time Past Chair), and Traci Rollins (Chair-Elect) are also deeply committed to the Chamber and local community. Of note, Mitrione was the Community Leader of the Year in 2018 and was honored with the Gaeta Chairman’s Award for Excellence 2022. In addition, Gunster attorney Brian Seymour was named the Community Leader of the Year in 2019.
"The work of this Chamber over the years has made our local communities more connected, more focused and more proactive that most areas. The end result is that we now live in the best place to live, work, play and raise a family in Florida. This Chamber’s purposeful dedication to fostering local business, advocating for important issues such as infrastructure and workforce housing, tackling mobility and a host of other issues has made our community a thriving place for businesses and families alike," stated Perry.
