Florida Supreme Court Honors Orange County Attorneys

The Florida Supreme Court and the Florida Pro Bono Coordinators Association announced the attorneys who were recognized for their 2022 pro bono work. This annual project was established to encourage participation with local organized pro bono programs.  Each year attorneys who contribute 20 or more hours receive a letter from the Chief Justice and a pin recognizing their contribution. The donation of time is based on the hours on cases closed during 2022 and project hours worked in 2022. Only attorneys who close a case with 20 or more hours or provide 20 or more hours in a project are included on the list. This year the letter from Chief Justice Carlos Muniz and the pin will be mailed to 164 attorneys who participated through Legal Aid Society of The Orange County Bar Association, Inc.
