Welcome to the New Law Day Experience!
The 2024 Law Day theme “Voices of Democracy” will be reflected by our speakers and in our program. Join us before Law Day Celebration and earn your CLE Credits!
Finally, as is tradition, all attorneys in attendance who have volunteered through LSNF and have given their time and experience to Pro Bono cases will be presented with a challenge coin in recognition of their service. They are the reason we gather and the difference in our community for many low income and vulnerable clients.
Join us for Law Day Celebration on Wednesday, May 1, 2024. This annual celebration will recognize local attorneys and judges within the Second Judicial Circuit, for their outstanding contributions.
Every year in May, Law Week is celebrated with National Law Day events throughout the country. Law Week and Law Day, originally proclaimed by President Eisenhower in 1958, celebrates the justice system and its role in democracy. As part of the national celebration of Law Week, Legal Services of North Florida, the Legal Aid Foundation of Tallahassee, and The Florida State University College of Law will jointly host a Law Day celebration to recognize attorneys and judges for their service in the Second Judicial Circuit.
This year’s program will feature award presentations to judges and recognizes volunteer attorneys from the Second Judicial Circuit for their dedication to providing pro bono legal services to clients who otherwise would not be able to afford legal representation. Volunteer attorneys provide representation to clients for a variety of civil legal issues including family law, housing, public benefits, employment, education and health care.
