Tampa civil litigator and eight-year veteran member of The Florida Bar Board of Governors Paige Greenlee has become the President-Elect Designate of The Florida Bar. “I’m excited, I’m proud of the campaign that I ran, and I am humbled by the support that I received across the state,” she said. “I know I have a lot of responsibility ahead, responsibility that comes with the confidence that members of the Bar have in me, and I don’t take that lightly.” In her campaign, she stressed her 20 years of professional service, which included stints as president of the Bar’s Young Lawyers Division and the Hillsborough County Bar Association. A six-year member of the Executive Committee, Greenlee has chaired or co-chaired other key board committees, including Disciplinary Review, Communications, Technology, and Program Evaluation. Congratulations, Paige! Looking forward to your leadership! 🎉 floridabar.org/the-florida-ba…
