Welcome to the Website of the Labor and Employment Law Section (LELS) of the Florida Bar. From excellent CLE seminars and webcast programs to publications, membership in the LELS is a must for Florida labor and/or employment law attorneys, whether they represent employees or employers or serve as neutrals or work for a government entity.
