Please Welcome 2021-22 Section Chair Jacina Parson
Senior Assistant Pinellas County Attorney Jacina Parson has been elected to serve as 2021-2022 chair of the Solo & Small Firm Section. She is a former director and assistant director of The Florida Bar Henry Latimer Center for Professionalism and has served on the Solo & Small Firm Section’s Executive Council since 2018.
Jacina’s goals for the year are inclusivity and engagement. “The Solo & Small Firm Section offers its members a great deal of return on investment through free and discounted CLE, committee service, opportunities to write articles and more,” she said. “We hope to reach as many current and potential members as possible this year to ensure that they are taking advantage of the many benefits of section membership.”
As a former staff attorney for Legal Services of North Florida, Jacina values the importance of service to the community and to other Bar members. She plans to launch a new “How to Solo Small Firm” video tip series so that solos and small firms can benefit from the wisdom of their colleagues. “Each solo or small-firm practitioner has a unique business model,” she said. “We hope to tap into the wealth of resources that Florida Bar members can offer to each other, so the section is giving back to the larger Florida Bar community and not just to our members.”
Jacina earned a B.A. degree in Criminology from the University of Florida and a J.D. degree from Stetson University College of Law. She is a licensed Florida realtor.
