Tallahassee FBI special agent Joshua E. Doyle will replace John F. “Jack” Harkness Jr. as executive director of the Florida Bar.

Doyle “is a public servant at his core and has built a career founded on the premise that everyone has a voice that deserves to be heard,” said Michael J. Higer, president-elect of the Florida Bar. “His leadership appointment comes at a time of much change in the profession that will bring with it both new opportunities and challenges.”
