Patricia A. Doherty, a partner with the law firm of Wooten, Honeywell, Kimbrough, Gibson, Doherty and Normand P.A. has been granted recertification as a Board Certified Civil Trial Lawyer by the Florida Bar.

Ms. Doherty was admitted to the Florida Bar in 1983 and has been a Florida Board Certified Civil Trial Lawyer since June 1992.

The Florida Supreme Court recognizes that a board certified lawyer has the distinction of having "special knowledge, skills, and proficiency" in their area of certification as well as… "character, ethics, and a reputation for professionalism in the practice of law."

The Florida Supreme Court established Florida's board certification program in 1982 to enable consumers to identify attorneys who are specialists. A lawyer who is board certified by The Florida Bar has demonstrated ability and experience in her field and professionalism within the legal community. Board certification requires high standards, continuing legal education and professionalism in the practice of law. Once certified, a board certified attorney must be recertified by The Florida Bar every five years.

The firm limits its practice to personal injury, wrongful death, medical negligence, products liability, nursing home and insurance issues.
