Sanchez-Medina bids farewell with a call to service and unity
Roland Sanchez-Medina, Jr.: ‘Engagement with The Florida Bar, its sections, and local bars is not a duty, but an opportunity,” he said. “An opportunity to practice law more effectively and joyously. When we all come together, we can tackle the many challenges facing our profession and serve our communities much more effectively.’
Outgoing Florida Bar President Roland Sanchez-Medina, Jr., used his final address to celebrate a year of professional growth, service, and transformation, urging lawyers across the state to say “yes” to involvement, and to embrace the ever-evolving future of law.
“Every journey has a beginning — and mine started with a simple step: saying yes to getting involved,” Sanchez-Medina told attendees of the General Assembly during The Florida Bar’s Annual Convention in Boca Raton June 27. “What I didn’t realize then was that one ‘yes’ would lead to a lifetime of profound relationships, opportunities to serve, and a deeper connection to our profession than I ever imagined.”
