The Orlando law firm of Moran & Shams P.A. announced that two of its shareholders are leaving and the firm's name will change.
Maurice "Mo" Shams and Sidney Shams are departing amicably, the firm says.
The 14-attorney commercial law firm, renamed Moran Kidd Lyons Johnson & Berkson P. A., will remain at 111 N. Orange Ave., Suite 1200.
Meanwhile, the Shams have set up a new law firm in Maitland, to be called the Shams Law Firm, at 1015 Maitland Center Commons Blvd., Suite 110.
