Probably, assuming you are a Florida resident or the contract sets venue here. The better question is what law applies and if your NOT a Florida resident nor are they, whether there is jurisidiction over either of you. Depending on the amount at issue though, sorting out such a complicated case, though interesting, is typically cost prohibitive.
