Fourth Judicial Circuit Chief Judge Mark Mahon administered the Oath of Attorney to 25 law school graduates Thursday at the Duval County Courthouse.
They also became members of The Jacksonville Bar Association, with their dues for the first year sponsored by some of the association’s active members, said JBA Executive Director Jim Bailey, former publisher of the Daily Record.
“Today, you are moving into a profession of which you can be very proud. It is a profession that’s dedicated to helping others,” said Tad Delegal, president of the JBA board of directors, before Mahon administered the oath.
