West Palm Beach, FL – The Jewish Lawyers Association of Palm Beach County is pleased to announce the appointment of five additional leaders to its Board of Directors.
 
Palm Beach County lawyers Jeff Devore, Adam Gumson, David Pratt, Heather Greenhill Stohlman and Gregory Tendrich join the rapidly growing organization’s leadership team. A strong community interest in the organization, its mission and programming prompted the need for the Board’s expansion, Founding President Gary S. Lesser said.
 
“The new board members are great leaders who will offer good insight and help us continue to promote and educate about our cultural heritage, protect our common interests, strengthen our community and fight antisemitism and intolerance,” Lesser said.
 
The Jewish Lawyers Association of Palm Beach County strives to unite and represent the interests of Jewish attorneys and allies with a commitment to compassion and the pursuit of a more just and tolerant world.
 
Since launching earlier this year, the voluntary bar association has held several sold-out community events, most recently hosting a talk by Judge Roy K. Altman of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida who spoke about the causes of the Israel-Hamas War and the consequences for the future of western civilization.
 
The organization’s next event is Nov. 12 at 4 p.m. at the Palm Beach County Historic 1916 Courthouse featuring Ambassador Gilad Erdan, Global President of Magen David Adom and Israel’s Ambassador to the United Nations from 2020 to 2024. For more information, visit www.jlapbc.org/events.
