More details to this question:
I am owed $200K in unpaid consulting fees on a contract initiated on 4/1/2009, up until the consulting arrangement ended in the summer 2011. Although technically, formal notification of the termination wasn't sent by me until 2012, however, I wasn't doing any more work for the LLC. It was with a Florida LLC, so I'd certainly like to retain a Florida attorney.

The statute of limitations on a breach of contract action in Florida runs from the date of breach. not the date the contract was signed. You have 5 years from date of breach to sue.
