Navigating the legal world
can be overwhelming.
OUR PURPOSE
We are here to protect
and to assist.
The concept of service at The Florida Bar extends beyond our members to the legal profession and society as a whole. To that end, the Bar:
- Protects the public by regulating lawyers and investigating and prosecuting people who practice law without a license.
- Administers a Lawyer Referral Service to connect consumers to trusted, verified attorneys.
- Develops and distributes information designed to educate the public about the judicial system, legal services and topics, and more.
- Helps resolve disputes between consumers and attorneys through the Legal Fee Arbitration and Grievance Mediation programs.
- Operates the Attorney Consumer Assistance Program for consumers who are dissatisfied or think a lawyer may have acted unethically and want to consider filing a complaint.
