During her last three years with the Public Defender, she served as the Chief of the Felony Division, supervising approximately 25 felony attorneys.
After ten years, Lorrie decided to leave the Public Defenders office and venture into civil trial practice. She spent three years with a firm in West Palm Beach practicing personal injury and commercial litigation. In 1992, Lorrie returned to the Tampa Bay Area and practiced for six years with a firm in Tampa where she participated in a number of complex cases in personal injury and commercial litigation.
Lorrie is a member of the Clearwater Bar Association, the Academy of Florida Trial Lawyers, the Association of Trial Lawyers of America and the Pinellas Chapter of the Florida Association for Women Lawyers, where she served as President for the 2001-2002 year.
