Courts in Florida
Most civil and criminal matters in Florida start in the state's trial courts and can be reviewed on appeal, though some matters begin in federal, administrative, or specialized forums. Which courthouse handles a case depends on where you live and what kind of case it is. Court-by-court guides for Florida are in preparation.
What is coming next for this page: city pages for Jacksonville and other metros, practice area pages, and the first attorney listings, built from public bar records. We publish in small waves and only link what already exists.
Official resources in Florida
Two official sources sit behind every Florida listing and are worth knowing directly: the licensing body that verifies every attorney here, and the court system that will hear most cases.
- The Florida Bar is where Florida attorney licenses are issued and where you can check any attorney's standing yourself.
- Florida Courts publishes court locations, filing rules, and self-help information for Florida cases.
