Tom Asbury was born at West Point and lived there for more than three years while his father — a decorated Vietnam veteran and the number-one military graduate of the Class of 1963 — served on the faculty as a professor of French. He received a congressional appointment to the Academy and chose instead the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, where he played football and graduated in 1996.
He earned his law degree in 2001, published in the Florida Coastal Law Journal that same year, and was sworn into The Florida Bar in June 2002. He began lecturing for the National Business Institute at the very beginning of his law career and has since lectured internationally. His career has run through a state attorney's office; regulatory compliance counsel to a Fortune 500 health insurer, where he was entrusted with its most significant government contracts; Vice President of Compliance at a national company, building compliance departments from scratch; and General Counsel and Senior Compliance Officer of a large statewide nonprofit. He has taught business law and legal writing as an adjunct law professor.
More than two decades designing, building, and negotiating estate plans, contracts, and business and compliance solutions are now restructured at Asbury Law so that people who never thought they could afford to have an attorney on retainer can actually have one — with highly customized documents built on smart-logic workflows refined over two decades of drafting, nothing left to guesswork, delivered at flat rates stated up front.
The larger aim is a shift in how people think about the law itself — not an obstacle, not a luxury, but a way of thinking three and four steps ahead about what protects your family, your business, and the legacy you intend to leave.
