Recognized in Best Lawyers since 2013 
Over the course of her 28-year legal career, Angela Rodante has become a nationally recognized and highly sought-after civil litigator — winning countless awards for her groundbreaking legal work fighting for individuals who have been catastrophically injured and for taking on large and powerful corporations.
While her accolades speak volumes for the level of success she’s committed to achieving on behalf of clients, it is a humble, driven mindset that has furtively propelled her forward from her initial start with the firm as a clerk and runner in 1985 to present-day legal warrior. Her accession in the field has come from a deeply held belief that helping people and fighting for justice is her innate duty, and that nothing worthwhile comes without sacrifice, selflessness, and courage.
In 2003, Angela Rodante became a partner of Swope, Rodante, Newsome & Steinberg. She specializes in civil trial litigation, handling cases involving personal injury and insurance bad faith.
Angela Rodante is active in various community service organizations, including the Ybor City Chamber of Commerce and Centro Asturiano de Tampa, and she served as one of the early Presidents of the TBTLA, a non-profit organization of lawyers dedicated to upholding justice.
Angela has received the Insurance Lawyer of the Year from Best Lawyers and is a top-rated lawyer in Insurance Law by Martindale Hubbell. Other significant recognitions include receiving the Client Distinction Award from Martindale Hubbell as well as receiving a Superb rating from AVVO for the past seven years consecutively.
Angela Rodante is a member of The Florida Bar and is licensed to practice before the all state and federal courts in the State of Florida, and the Eleventh Circuit of the U.S. Court of Appeals.
Angela’s level of commitment to her firm, clients, profession and community form a mosaic whose consistent theme is selfless service. When she’s not fighting for justice, she enjoys spending time on Redington Beach with family and traveling, with recent trips to Machu Picchu and Siracusa, Sicily.
