[*429] PER CURIAM.
We affirm the order of the trial court denying appellant’s motion to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction over the person. See generally Burger King Corp. v. Rudzewicz, 471 U.S. 462, 105 S.Ct. 2174, 85 L.Ed.2d 528 (1985); Manrique v. Fabbri, 493 So. 2d 437 (Fla.1986); First National Bank of Kissimmee v. Dunham, 342 So. 2d 1021 (Fla. 4th DCA 1977).
We have considered McRae v. J.D./M.D., Inc., 511 So. 2d 540 (Fla.1987), but do not find it controlling because in this case the court has in personam jurisdiction under Section 48.193(1)(g), Florida Statutes (1987). See First National Bank of Kissimmee v. Dunham; Unger v. Publisher Entry Service, Inc., 513 So. 2d 674 (Fla. 5th DCA 1987), rev. denied, 520 So. 2d 586 (Fla.1988); Engineered Storage Systems, Inc. v. National Partitions & Interiors, Inc., 415 So. 2d 114 (Fla. 3d DCA 1982); Professional Patient Transportation, Inc. v. Fink, 365 So. 2d 209 (Fla. 3d DCA 1978).
The order of the trial court is supported by the parties’ agreement that payment for appellee’s services would be made in Florida and that Florida would have jurisdiction over any contractual disputes. The appellant should reasonably have anticipated being haled into court in this state. Cf. World-Wide Volkswagen Corp. v. Woodson, 444 U.S. 286, 100 S.Ct. 559, 62 L.Ed.2d 490 (1980).

In addition, in this case the aspect found to be lacking in McRae exists by virtue of the fulfillment of the prerequisites of section 48.193(l)(g). Thus, we agree with Jefferson Savings & Loan Ass’n v. Greenman Group, Inc., 531 So. 2d 428 (Fla. 4th DCA 1988) which upheld Florida jurisdiction over a dispute apparently involving a breach of a contract in which the parties had agreed to Florida jurisdiction and the prerequisites of section 48.193(l)(g) had been fulfilled.
