After 13 years on the Third District Court of Appeal, Chief Judge Leslie Rothenberg will join The Ferraro Law Firm as a trial attorney in February.

“I am humbled and honored by the legal community’s interest in my post-judicial plans and for the many interesting opportunities I was offered to put my skills to work. I am excited to announce that I have agreed to join The Ferraro Law Firm team when I retire from the bench at the end of the year,” Rothenberg said in a statement.
