In 1973, the idea of formulating a local Polish American Club in the New Port Richey, Hudson area of Florida was conceived. From this humble beginning there developed the idea for the formation of socializing of Polish Americans. The membership increased to 200 by the end of the year. As membership grew and more social events were planned, the Hudson Community Club Hall was rented for meetings. It was at a meeting held on May 4, 1973 that the club was named. All members present agreed that the club be named “The Polish American Social Club of Pasco County, Inc.”. It was at this time that some of the goals for the club were established.

When working in the government sector, Dorota represented clients in bankruptcy cases through Put Something Back Pro Bono Project. She continues to do so today. After leaving her position with State of Florida, Dorota entered private practice with Rafferty Stolzenberg Gelles, P.A., and later with Gonzalez and Wermuth, P.L. in Miami as a commercial litigation attorney, where she represented clients in a wide array of debtors and creditors disputes.
She then opened her own law practice with the desire to concentrate on providing services exclusively to consumer debtors in bankruptcy.

Through the mediator foreclosure training, she became very knowledgeable in home loan modifications and other forms of loan workout options, a knowledge that is invaluable in dealing with foreclosures in her bankruptcy practice.
