Board Certified

Achieving board certification status by the Florida Bar means that a lawyer has the highest level of knowledge, skill, expertise and proficiency in a specific field of law. The Supreme Court of Florida established Florida’s board certification program so that consumers can identify qualified legal specialists. Board certification’s stringent requirements for legal expertise and professional conduct give the public objective standards by which to evaluate attorneys.

A Board-Certified Civil Trial Attorney has to meet certain standards, conduct a certain number of trials, pass a board certification exam, and obtain CLE credits and recommendations from other attorneys and judges.
