The Supreme Court on Thursday approved a Bar proposal to retain more board-certified attorneys by revising certification standards.

The order, In Re: Amendments to Rules Regulating The Florida Bar – Rules 6-3.5 and 6-3.6, Case No. SC2024-0237, takes effect October 21.

“Having considered the Bar’s petition, the comment filed, and the Bar’s response, we amend rules 6-3.5 and 6-3.6 as proposed by the Bar,” the order states.
