The 66th annual Florida Bar convention, which starts Wednesday, will tackle some weighty issues, such as how elderly lawyers can wind down their practices, generational issues among lawyers, how to eliminate bias in the legal field and how graduating lawyers who can’t find jobs can launch practices.
Sandy Upchurch, an Ormond Beach mediator who is chairing the convention, said she and outgoing president Eugene Pettis strove to include meatier topics than usual to attract a diverse audience and boost attendance.
