This past Saturday the Clerk’s Office hosted our second Legal Matters Housing Law Forum. It was a resounding success, with more than 75 local residents taking advantage of our online registration.

Attendees to the forum had the opportunity to participate in seminars on avoiding foreclosure, renting a foreclosure, buying a foreclosed property and more. Guest speakers included Ninth Circuit Judge Alice L. Blackwell, Legal Aid attorney Larri Thatcher, attorney Karen Wonsetler, attorney Kimberly Sanchez and attorney Roberta Walton.

A special thank you to all of our attendees, guest speakers and deputy clerks who made the event a success.

Funding for the Legal Matters Housing Law Educational Forum is provided by the Mortgage Foreclosure Education Fund, F.S. 45.035(2)(a). Look for information about our next Legal Matters Forum in the coming months.

May Star Performer

Congratulations to Trial Clerk Cherie Estevez for being this month’s Star Performer. Cherie was not only selected for her commitment to the organization and knowledge, but also for going above and beyond each day and being an outstanding team player.

“Cherie is very active in volunteering to stay late for trial clerks who might need to stay late for a trial,” said a co-worker nominating Cherie. “She is always helpful, and demonstrates humility in all aspects of her work. Cherie is a role model for what a trial clerk should be, and with qualities such as kindness and compassion, I believe that Cherie embodies the essence of a Star Performer.”
