Why Templeton
In 1990, Steven Templeton left a large international firm to create something different: a firm that delivers the highest standard of client service with deep personal attention. More than three decades later, that founding vision still guides everything we do.
From a single office in Royal Palm Beach to a multi-office firm with 60+ professionals, Templeton has grown by earning trust — project by project, client by client.
FloGrown.
Florida-Focused.
Nationally Recognised.
