Board Certification

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 they have attained a level of professional expertise in their chosen fields.

Lawyers applying for board certification must pass a comprehensive examination that evaluates a high level of knowledge, skills, and expertise in a specialty field.

Board-certified lawyers undergo a rigorous peer-review process that assesses competence in a specialty field, as well as professionalism and ethics in the practice of law.

Attorneys that are board certified by The Florida Bar are the only Florida attorneys who may refer to themselves as “board-certified specialists” or use the letters “B.C.S.” to indicate “Board-Certified Specialist.”
