John K. Shubin founded The Euclid Group in 2022 to bring together development and investment professionals, planners, designers, regulators, and former municipal officials under one roof. A lifelong South Floridian, he has spent four decades shaping Florida’s real estate landscape, advising owners, developers, investors, lenders, and public agencies on land use, zoning, and approvals for complex projects.

John has helped conceive and secure approval for large-scale real estate projects across Florida and other U.S. jurisdictions. He brings a deep understanding of where natural resources, government regulation, and political realities meet, and what that means for a property’s highest and best use.

John is also Chairman and Managing Partner of Shubin Law Group, a statewide firm with offices in Miami, West Palm Beach, and Tampa. He is one of the few attorneys in the U.S. ranked by Chambers USA as Band 1 in both land use and real estate litigation, and he has been recognized by Best Lawyers and Super Lawyers.

He serves on the boards of Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden, Museum of Miami, and the University of Miami’s Master of Real Estate Development + Urbanism program. He is a member of The Real Estate Roundtable and the Florida Council of 100, and is named to Florida Trend’s Florida 500 List.

John earned a J.D., cum laude, from the University of Miami School of Law; a B.A., with high honors, from St. John’s College, Oxford University; and an A.B., cum laude, from Harvard College.
