The Florida Bar maintains limited basic information about lawyers licensed to practice in the state (e.g., name, address, year of birth, gender, law schools attended, admission year). However, The Florida Bar allows individual attorneys the opportunity to add personal and professional information to the directory. The lawyer is solely responsible for reviewing and updating any additional information in the directory. The lawyer's added information is not reviewed by The Bar for accuracy and The Bar makes no warranty of any kind, express or implied. The Florida Bar, its Board of Governors, employees, and agents are not responsible for the accuracy of that additional information. Publication of lawyers' contact information in this listing does not mean the lawyers have agreed to receive unsolicited communications in any form. Unauthorized use of this data may result in civil or criminal penalties. The Find a Lawyer directory is not a lawyer referral service. 10-Year Discipline History: None Law School: University of Virginia School of Law Federal Courts: Florida Southern District Bankruptcy Court U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit U.S. District Court, District of Colorado U.S. District Court, Eastern District of New York U.S. District Court, Middle District of Florida U.S. District Court, Northern District of Florida U.S. District Court, Southern District of Florida U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York State Courts: Florida New York Firm: The Behar Law Firm, P.A.
