Trader Legal Helping Florida families navigate change, protect what matters, and plan for the future. Family Law • Probate • Estate Planning • Trust Administration

Trader Legal was originally established by Edward L. Trader in 1952 serving Brevard County’s needs as a general law practice. At that time, Edward was one of the first attorneys in Brevard County. Edward was admired and respected by his colleagues and the Judiciary. In 1985, his son, J. Rudi Trader, joined the firm, specializing in the areas of Family Law, Probate, Wills & Trusts, and Real Property. Rudi has handled a substantial number of complex cases through trial or pretrial settlement. He is known for being thorough and for giving his clients the personal attention that all clients deserve in their time of need. He was born and raised in Melbourne, Florida and is well known in not only the legal community, but also in the community at large. In 2015, Rudi’s daughter, Kimberli L. Trader, joined the firm. She graduated from Florida Coastal School of Law in Jacksonville, Florida in the top 10% of her class. Kim is looking forward to following in her father’s and grandfather’s footsteps and serving the legal needs of the firm’s clients.
