Dale E Workman
Assistant Public Defender
Dale E. Workman earned his Juris Doctor (JD) degree in 1997 from Stetson University College of Law, which has consistently and repeatedly been recognized as the best law school in the nation for producing superior trial attorneys.
Prior to that, he earned a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree in Political Science in 1993 from the University of South Florida. While there, he served as Articles Editor and Feature Writer for the school’s Undergraduate Law Review, for which he wrote “Casualty of War,” an in-depth analysis of the erosion of the right to privacy that has inevitably resulted from the nation’s War on Drugs.
Since law school, he has continued his education at the University of North Florida, where he earned a Graduate Certificate in Nonprofit Management in 2014.
He is admitted to practice in all state courts throughout Florida, as well as all federal courts throughout the Northern and Middle Districts of Florida and the United States Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals.
He has been named one of the Top 20 Criminal Defense Lawyers in Jacksonville by the independent professional services review firm Expertise, LLC. In addition, his “High Ethical Standing” and “High Professional Achievement” has been recognized by fellow attorneys and judges who know him and have worked with him, resulting in a “Distinguished” Peer Review Rating from the renowned attorney review firm Martindale-Hubbell. He has also received each of the Silver, Gold and Platinum Client Champion Awards from the same organization based upon multiple reviews from clients that he has represented.
Finally, he has been affiliated with many legal and professional organizations, including the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the Florida Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the American Trial Lawyers Association, and the Florida Bar.
