FFLA, formerly The Florida Bar Foundation, has received cy pres awards totaling $309,957 from two class action settlements.

FFLA will use the awards to fund legal aid throughout Florida.

“FFLA is honored to be the recipient of these awards, as it reflects the trust and confidence the courts have in our ability to administer funding for legal aid,” FFLA President Roberto R. Pardo said. “Our reputation for transparency and facilitating impactful work ensures that cy pres funding is used in a responsible and efficient manner.”
