A Message of Gratitude
As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday, I find myself reflecting on the incredible journey we’ve shared this past year. Our Section has truly exemplified the spirit of collaboration and professional excellence, and for that, I am profoundly grateful.
Celebrating Our Collective Achievements
This year has been marked by numerous accomplishments that have strengthened our BLS family:
- We successfully hosted our annual Labor Day Conference, bringing together over 400 attorneys from across Florida.
- Our CLE programs are in full swing, with a highly successful View from the Bench across two cities in two days, a full calendar of committee CLEs, and more signature programs planned and coming down the pike.
- Our pro bono initiatives continue to provide legal assistance to those who are underserved
- Our Legislation Committee continues to assist the Florida Legislature with its business legislation and offer technical assistance to others on business-related matters.
These achievements are a testament to your dedication and commitment to our
profession and our community.
Gratitude for Your Unwavering Support
Your active participation and support have been the cornerstone of our success. Whether you’ve contributed by volunteering your time for committee work, sharing expertise at our CLE seminars, or participating in our community outreach programs, each of you has played a vital role in advancing our Section’s mission and upholding the highest standards of our profession.
Looking Ahead with Optimism
As we gather with our loved ones this Thanksgiving, let us also celebrate the bonds
we’ve forged within our legal community. Your continued engagement and support
inspire us to set even higher goals for the coming year.
A Personal Note of Thanks
On a personal note, I am deeply thankful for the trust you’ve placed in me as your Chair. Your support and feedback have been invaluable in guiding our Section forward. As we enter this season of gratitude, I encourage each of you to take a moment to reflect on the positive impact you’ve made in our legal community and beyond. Your dedication to service and professional excellence is truly something to be thankful for.
Wishing you and your loved ones a joyous Thanksgiving filled with warmth, laughter,
and cherished moments.
With sincere appreciation,
Manny
