I was born in Orlando and am a second generation attorney. I graduated from Presbyterian College in 1979 and went on to attend to obtain my law degree from the Cumberland School of Law at Samford University. I became Board Certified in Workers' Compensation in 1990 and have remained Board Certified since that time.
Tom DeLattre became my law partner in 2007. The firm is now known as Wieland & DeLattre, P.A. I have twice served as President of the Florida Workers' Advocates and is still a member of the Board of Directors of that organization. I served as Chairman of the Workers' Compensation Section of the Academy of Florida Trial Lawyers (now known as the Florida Justice Association) and was asked to serve as an advisory to the Florida Division of Workers' Compensation on several occasions.
I have served as Chair of the Executive Council of the Workers' Compensation Section of the Florida Bar from 2019-2020 and remains a member of the Executive Council. I am a Fellow in the College of Workers' Compensation Lawyers. I am a past member of the statewide Workers' Compensation Fraud Task Force.
My father, Bill Wieland, served as a Judge of Compensation Claims for over 23 years. I have served his community as past Chair of the Orlando Area for the Homeless. I am very active in my church serving as the attorney for St. Alban's Cathedral, The Diocese of the Eastern United States of the Anglican Province of America and for the Anglican Province of America.
I am a frequent lecturer on workers' compensation issues and serve as a faculty member for the Trial Advocacy Seminar for the Florida Bar Association Workers' Compensation Section. I am also a member of the Workers Injury Law and Advocacy Group (WILG), which is a national organization of workers' compensation attorneys.
I have been married to Kennie Wieland for 40 years and we have two sons who are both attorneys handling workers’ compensation and personal injury cases.
