Comments
- “In addition to building his own practice area, Jonathan Gilbert mentors to less experienced attorneys in an effort to develop a new generation of strong, critical thinkers. Mr. Gilbert organized a mock trial for law students as the President Young Lawyers Section of the Florida Justice Association. He also remains involved in local volunteer bar associations.”
