The FJA Young Lawyers Section is open to attorneys 35 years old and under or out of law school for 10 years or less. Among other activities, the section hosts the annual Honorable E. Earle Zehmer Memorial Mock Trial Competition and the Al J. Cone Trial Advocacy Institute. In addition, the Young Lawyers section hosts an annual Lobby Week during the legislative session where young lawyers can meet other active FJA Young Lawyers, network with FJA leadership and find out more about how the legislative process in Tallahassee works.
Purpose
As FJA leaders of tomorrow, the Young Lawyers Section is dedicated to laying groundwork that will secure Florida's civil justice system and the rights of Florida consumers for years to come. We help do this by providing networking opportunities for new lawyers and ensuring they have a support system as they enter the practice of law.
