Carlton Fields shareholder William “Bill” Sklar began teaching condominium law at the University of Miami School of Law in 1980, one semester after he earned his own J.D. from the law school.

He’s continued as an adjunct professor throughout a 42-year legal practice of representing the developers and lenders that have built neighborhoods on swampland and reshaped the South Florida skyline, particularly along the barrier islands. Sklar also helped draft legislation that continues to govern condominium developments to this day, broadening his pedagogy to include lawmakers in Tallahassee and around the state.
