Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as your counsel in connection with the Registration Statement on Form SB-2 (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”) for the registration of 1,800,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), 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 available 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 certificates made by officers of the Company. In rendering our opinion, in addition to the assumptions that are customary in opinion letters of this kind, we have assumed the genuineness of signatures on the documents we have examined, and the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies. We have not verified any of these assumptions.

 

This opinion is rendered as of the date hereof 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 were duly authorized for issuance, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable when issued.

 

We consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the reference to this firm in the related Prospectus under the caption “Legal
