Understanding Board Certification in Criminal Trial Law
The Certification Process
Board certification in Criminal Trial Law is a testament to the attorney’s exceptional skills, experience, and knowledge. To achieve this recognition, the candidate must meet three essential requirements:
- Active Practice: The attorney must be actively practicing in either criminal appellate law or criminal trial law.
- Peer Review References: They must receive excellent peer review references from their legal peers.
- Certification Examination: Passing a rigorous certification examination is mandatory.
This process ensures that only highly qualified individuals attain board certification, reflecting the high standards expected by committee members and The Florida Bar itself.
The Certification Exam
The examination for board certification is a rigorous test of a candidate’s knowledge and skills. It comprises:
- Five essay questions
- Fifty multiple-choice questions
- Addresses procedural and substantive law in both state and federal court
The exam evaluates the criminal lawyer’s fundamental knowledge of the law, analytical reasoning, and their ability to apply their knowledge to practical situations. Applicants are required to answer these questions in two three-hour blocks, making it a comprehensive assessment of their capabilities.
The grading process is anonymous, with each examinee identified by a number assigned by Florida Bar staff. Those attorneys who meet all the requirements and achieve a passing score on the examination earn the designation as a criminal trial law board certified specialist.

Board certification in Criminal Trial Law is a prestigious distinction, and only a select few attain this status.
