Special Committee on Greater Public Access to Legal Services

Mission

To provide recommendations to improve the delivery of legal services to Florida consumers while continuing to assure lawyers play a proper and prominent role.

In a March 2022 letter, the Supreme Court of Florida requested that The Florida Bar provide alternative proposals for “how the rules governing the practice of law in Florida may be revised to improve the delivery of legal services to Florida’s consumers and to assure Florida lawyers play a proper and prominent role in the provision of these services.”  In response, The Florida Bar created the Special Committee on Greater Public Access to Legal Services and charged it with making recommendations to improve the delivery of legal services to Florida’s consumers and to assure that Florida lawyers play a proper and prominent role in the provision of these services.
