Bichler & Longo Launches a New Podcast Dedicated to Florida’s First Responders

Tuesday, November 11, 2025 – Bichler & Longo, PLLC, Florida’s premier law firm for first responders, proudly announces the launch of its new podcast, Shielded: The First Responder Law Cast.

Hosted by attorneys Paolo Longo and Geoff Bichler, Shielded takes listeners inside the intersection of law, service, and sacrifice, exploring the legal issues that affect Florida’s firefighters, law enforcement and correctional officers.

“Our goal with Shielded is to educate and empower first responders by demystifying the complex laws that impact their careers and health,” said Paolo Longo, partner at Bichler & Longo. “We’re telling real stories, breaking down Florida’s presumption statutes, PTSD coverage, and everything in between straight from the people who live it and fight for it every day.”

The podcast will feature candid conversations with first responders, medical experts, and legal professionals, offering insight into landmark cases, new legislation, and practical steps for protecting benefits and rights under Florida law.

New episodes drop bi-weekly and are available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.
