When you need the services of a personal injury lawyer, you want an attorney who is able to handle your case and who has expertise in the area of law relating to your legal needs. To assist you in finding such a lawyer, the Supreme Court of Florida directed the Florida Bar to offer a “board certification” program for Florida Bar members. The program is designed to help the public make an informed decision when seeking and selecting personal injury lawyers in Panama City and throughout Florida. Board certified lawyers are legal experts dedicated to professional excellence. Board certification establishes an independent measure of competence, professionalism, and peer acknowledgment and helps clients and fellow lawyers set expectations for professional abilities.
The purpose of board certification is to help the public recognize lawyers who have demonstrated special knowledge, skills and proficiency in a certain field of practice. Several of the personal injury lawyers at our firm (with offices in Panama City, Marianna, and Bonifay) are board-certified in civil trial law. Certification establishes standards for an attorney’s education and competency and is only granted to attorneys in good standing with the Florida Bar.
Board certification is the highest level of recognition by the Florida Bar concerning the competency and experience of personal injury lawyers. Board certification also recognizes attorneys’ special knowledge, skills and proficiency in various areas of law, as well as speaking to their professionalism and ethics in practice.
