Saluting Our Heroes For Veterans Day & Section Notes
As we honor the brave men and women who’ve defended our nation this Veterans Day, let’s also celebrate some remarkable achievements within our Florida Bar Business Law Section!
Veterans Financial Literacy: A Mission Accomplished
Our Section’s Financial Literacy Bill sparked a statewide movement! Huge applause to Judges Isicoff, Specie, and Brown, along with Carlos Sardi for their tireless efforts in the Veteran’s Financial Wellness Programs throughout the state. To our Section members who are veterans – we salute you and your sacrifices. Your service is the bedrock of our freedom.
Registry Revolution
Business Litigation Committee Chair Joseph Van de Bogart has cracked the code! The Florida Secured Transaction Registry is getting a major upgrade thanks to his persistence. New search options are coming soon – stay tuned for game-changing improvements including that the search options on the Registry will now be expanded to provide a default option to search using standard search logic or Proximity Search option, to search using either individuals or organizations, by Actual Name or Compact Name. The option to search by Document Name will remain the same. Further details are forthcoming, but in the meantime, great work Joe!
Dynamic Duo: Stephanie Lieb & Paul Singerman
Talk about a power team! Stephanie and Paul orchestrated an incredible “View from the Bench” seminar across two cities in just two days. Check out the all-star lineup of contributors here.
