  • Board certification is a voluntary program for lawyers, officiated by The Florida Supreme Court and administered by The Florida Bar. The program began in 1982 to help the public select lawyers who are distinguished in particular areas of law.
  • The Florida Bar thoroughly evaluates all board-certified lawyers for credibility and expertise in a particular area of law, and professionalism and ethics in the practice of law. The Florida Bar’s slogan is “Evaluated for Professionalism, Tested for Expertise.” A lawyer who is a member in good standing of The Florida Bar and who meets the standards prescribed by the Florida Supreme Court may begin the process of becoming board-certified in one or more of the 27 certification areas. Established by the Florida Supreme Court, board certification is conferred upon lawyers by the most credible and highest authority over the state’s legal community, The Florida Bar.
  • Board certification is Florida’s official, independent determination of a lawyer’s expertise to practice in a specialty field of law. It is the gold standard for Florida lawyers, representing a recognition by a lawyer’s peers that the lawyer has attained a level of professional expertise in the chosen field.
