GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Today, Governor Ron DeSantis announced the appointment of Adam Lee of Gainesville to serve as Judge on the Alachua County Court.
Lee is a Managing Member at Adam Lee Law PLLC. According to his firm’s website, Lee was born and raised in Gainesville and graduated from the International Baccalaureate program at Eastside High School before attending the University of Florida for both his undergraduate and law degrees. Adam started his law career at the State Attorney’s Office, where he prosecuted criminal cases in misdemeanor, criminal traffic, juvenile, and felony courts in Alachua, Bradford, and Union Counties.
Upon leaving the State Attorney’s Office in 2012, Adam became the in-house counsel at a multi-state energy company, where he handled civil litigation matters, including issues involving contracts, debt collection, and employment law.
