Ladies and Gentlemen:

        We have acted as your counsel in connection with the Registration Statement
on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act") for the
registration of 2,249,825 shares (the "Shares") of common stock, par value
$0.001 per share, of NeoGenomics, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company").

        You have requested our opinion as to the matters set forth below in
connection with the Registration Statement. For purposes of rendering this
opinion, we have examined the Registration Statement, the Company's articles of
incorporation, as amended, and bylaws, and the corporate action of the Company
that provides for the issuance of the Shares, and we have made such other
investigation as we have deemed appropriate. We have examined and relied upon
certificates of public officials and, as to certain matters of fact that are
material to our opinion, we have also relied on a certificate of an officer of
the Company. In rendering our opinion we have assumed the genuineness of
signatures on the documents we have examined, the conformity to authentic
original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies, and have also
made the assumptions that are customary in opinion letters of this kind. We have
not verified any of those assumptions

        This opinion is rendered as of the date of this letter and is limited to
matters of Nevada corporate law, including applicable provisions of the Nevada
Constitution and reported judicial decisions interpreting those laws. We express
no opinion as to the laws of any other state, the federal law of the United
States, or the effect of any applicable federal or state securities laws.

        Based upon and subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that the Shares
are duly authorized for issuance by the Company and, when issued and paid for in
accordance with the provisions of the NeoGenomics, Inc. 2003 Equity Incentive
Plan as described in the Registration Statement, will be validly issued, fully
paid, and nonassessable.

        We consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement. In giving our consent we do not admit that we are in the category of
persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the 1933 Act or the rules
and regulations under such act.

                                                Very truly yours,


                                                /s/ Burton, Bartlett & Glogovac
                                                Burton, Bartlett & Glogovac
