Gilbert Participates as Mock Judge
Feldman, Fox & Morgado is proud to announce that Attorney Jonathan Gilbert has volunteered to participate in the Florida Justice Association's 2011 E. Earle Zehmer Mock Trial Competition. Being held in Tampa this weekend, Attorney Gilbert will be one of the mock Judges.
Hosted by the Young Lawyers Section, the competition will feature several bright, future young attorneys from around the state competing for a $1,000 scholarship and for the bragging rights associated with winning this prestigious event.
"This weekend I will be judging three of the four rounds of the Zehmer Mock Trial Competition at the Hillsborough County Courthouse" says Gilbert. "I am very interested in participating because this is an event involving law students from 12 law schools nationally. This event could provide an excellent opportunity to help our soon-to-be lawyers with honing their trial skills."
The E. Earle Zehmer Mock Trial Competition is one of the premier and distinguished mock trial events in Florida. "It is also always beneficial to learn by teaching, and I think judging the competition will provide some benefit to me in that respect," says Attorney Gilbert.
