Frank L. Pohl
 Frank Pohl founded Pohl & Short, P.A. based upon the belief that
a high quality small commercial law firm was needed in the
Orlando, Florida area as an alternative to the large commercial
law firms. He still believes that client responsiveness and
satisfaction has a place in a fast changing legal profession.
Frank has been involved in the Central Florida community for
more than twenty-five years. He is a past board member of the
Atlantic Center for the Arts, Coalition for the Homeless, the
Hamilton Holt Board of Rollins College, the HCF Foundation, the
City of Orlando Civic Facilities Board, the Winter Park Memorial
Hospital Foundation, The International Board of Visitors, the
Rollins College Board of Entrepreneurship, the Florida Symphony
Orchestra, and the Stormwater Management Board for the City of
Winter Park to name a few of the local organizations Frank has
been dedicated to over the years. Frank has recently been
appointed to the City of Winter Park Real Estate Task Force and
to the City of Winter Park City Hall Selection Committee. Frank
practices real estate and corporate law. Because he had several
years of exclusively practicing commercial litigation early in
his career, he brings a unique perspective to the corporate and
real estate practice. He has co-authored several articles on
real estate and tax considerations and has lectured before the
National Business Institute of Real Estate Law.
Frank graduated magna cum laude with a B.G.S. Degree from the
University of Miami in Coral Gables, Florida. He also attended
the University College at the University of London as an
undergraduate studying British literature and British history.
Between completion of his undergraduate degree and commencing
law school, Frank spent a year traveling abroad and actually
circled the globe. He obtained his Juris Doctorate Degree in
1979. He obtained a Masters of Law and Letters Degree (LL.M.)
from New York University School of Law in 1980.
Frank is a member of The Florida Bar, the California Bar, and
the District of Columbia Court of Appeals. He is also admitted
to the U.S. Supreme Court. He has served on the Orange County
Bar Association Real Estate Committee and is a member of the The
Florida Bar’s Real Property and Corporation and Business Law
Section. He has also served on the Florida Bar Grievance
Committee.
Frank and his wife, Joan, have two daughters. They have lived in
Winter Park, Florida since 1980. Their older daughter, Allison,
is a 2007 graduate of Hamilton College and is attending Parsons
The New School For Design for her post graduate degree. Their
younger daughter, Rachel, is attending Hamilton College.
