In the event of a car or truck accident, injured victims need an attorney that will stand up to insurance companies. An attorney who won’t just treat them as a number, but as a human being. One who genuinely cares about their health and will advise and explain the process every step of the way. This is where I come in. My name is Flora LaTonya Stewart. Most people know me as Tonya. I am an attorney who was born and raised in Lake Wales, Florida, specializing in the areas of Personal Injury and Criminal Defense.

I started in the legal profession as an Assistant Public Defender in Bartow, Florida where I worked in the misdemeanor, felony, juvenile, and violation of probation divisions. I later went on to work for a Personal Injury Firm in Sanford, FL, specializing in car and truck accident cases where I helped secure millions in settlements for injured clients. I pride myself on my ability to seek great results for my clients.

In 2001, I graduated magna cum laude from Florida A&M University with a B.S. in Criminal Justice. In 2006, I earned a Juris Doctorate from Florida A&M College of Law, where I was part of the Prestigious Law Review staff that published the law school’s first Law Review Article. In 2014, I graduated summa cum laude (highest honors) with an MBA from Florida International University. I am a member of the Florida Bar, Georgia Bar, National Bar Association, American Bar Association, the Young Trial Lawyers Association, and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
