On Wednesday, April 23, 2025, we had the honor of hosting Leadership Luncheon Series, featuring State Attorney Susan "Suzy" S. Lopez. More than 50 guests gathered at the University Club of Tampa for networking, comradery and an in-depth presentation of the office of the State Attorney. Suzy shared with the crowd some of the recent cases she was working on, with an overview on how long these cases take to process. We also learned of the many partnerships that the office has with its local community.
