Retiring Judge Robert F. Diaz turned the tables on the Young Lawyers section of the Broward County Bar Association during a recent “Lunch with the Judiciary”: instead of taking the spotlight himself, he asked the attendees to do most of the talking. Judge Diaz has taught law at Nova Southeastern University for decades and it was very clear he knew just how to get people to open up. Each person had to explain why they become a lawyer, describe the oddest job was they had ever worked, tell where they went to law school and share their long-term goal. Judge Diaz captivated the group with his wit, humor, sincerity and institutional knowledge. He is retiring in December after 32 years on the bench. You will be missed!
