Congratulations to our newest Certified Legal Interns (CLIs)! These bright and dedicated individuals will be stepping into the courtroom to gain real-world experience while serving the people of Orange and Osceola counties. We’re excited to watch them grow, learn, and contribute to the important work of seeking justice. Welcome to the SAO9 family.

The State Attorney’s Office was proud to participate in back-to-school events across Orange County this past week! We handed out school supplies, shared valuable resources, and spoke with parents about the importance of gun safety. Free gun locks and safe storage tips were provided to help keep our children and homes secure. A big thank-you to our community partners and elected officials for including us in these meaningful events that put families first and help students start the year with confidence!

State Attorney Worrell, attorneys from the Special Units, current law students, and interns at the State Attorney’s Office came together to present to the Your Future, Your Choice interns. They shared valuable insights about the pursuit of justice, their experiences in law school, and tips for preparing for the LSAT. It was an inspiring session for future legal leaders!

As part of the Your Future, Your Choice Internship Program, our interns had the incredible opportunity to visit the Orlando Police Headquarters! They toured the facility, met with law enforcement professionals, and gained valuable insight into how police and prosecutors work together to serve our community. From forensics to investigations, it was a behind-the-scenes look at the front lines of public safety.
