TAMPA, FL— Shumaker lawyer Sean P. Bevil has been elected President of the Hillsborough County Bar Association’s (HCBA) Young Lawyers Division (YLD), where he was sworn in June 15, 2023. Sean will serve a one-year term leading the YLD Board, which promotes professionalism and ethical conduct, provides guidance and support to new lawyers, provides educational opportunities for members, organizes programs and events of interest to young lawyers, and encourages community involvement.
