An attorney undergoes a rigorous application process, background checks and examination to obtain a license to practice law in Florida. The intense scrutiny from the Florida Bar Association is intended to maintain the integrity and quality of legal practice in the state. Attorneys swear to support the Constitution, abide by the rules of professional conduct and take actions that are consistent with truth and justice. James Toombs Law has an unwavering commitment to the principled, dutiful practice of the legal profession. I expect the same firm dedication to ethical, competent legal practice from our peers. To uphold these high standards, I represent attorneys and their clients in all matters related to the licensure and practice of law.
