The Florida Bar Family Law Section continued its support of FFLA by donating $39,600 to provide four additional 2025 Civil Legal Aid Summer Fellows. Section leadership presented a ceremonial check to FFLA leadership during The Florida Bar Annual Convention in June.
“Supporting young lawyers is vital to the future of our profession,” said Aimee Gross, chair of the Family Law Section. “Thanks to our legal aid partners, these talented students are gaining invaluable, real-world experience in Family Law—experience we hope will inspire them to serve Florida’s families for years to come.”
The section also announced that it had approved funding six fellows for the Summer 2026 program. FFLA is extremely grateful for the section’s ongoing program assistance.
“There’s no better way to pay it forward to the next generation of family law attorneys than by supporting these fellowships,” said Christopher Rumbold, Immediate Past Chair of the Family Law Section.
“We’re proud we’ve had the ability to contribute more than $750,000 to FFLA over the past decade, and we’re particularly honored to help fund the fellowship program for the past three years. It’s a valuable investment in these future family law
attorneys.”
