Outgoing Bar President Gary Lesser said when he was sworn in a year ago that he wanted The Florida Bar to have “the best mentorship program in the country,” and Bar leaders have been working toward making that a reality since. The Special Committee on Mentoring New Lawyers, that became the Standing Committee on Mentoring on Mentoring New Lawyers July 1, spearheaded the effort to create the just launched Counsel to Counsel, a unique mentorship program facilitated virtually through the MentorcliQ software.
