The Hon. Patricia L. Strowbridge is a judge for the 9th Judicial Circuit Court of Florida. She was appointed to the bench by former Governor Rick Scott on March 25, 2015, filling a vacancy created by the retirement of the Hon. Robert M. Evans.

After graduating from law school, Strowbridge began her legal career as an attorney with the Adoption, Surrogacy and Family Law Firm. She worked in that capacity until 2000, at which time she founded A Chosen Child, Inc. She spent the next fourteen years as its executive director and its legal services director.


Her memberships have included the Orange County Bar Association, the American Academy of Adoption Attorneys, the American Academy of Assisted Reproductive Technology Attorneys, and the Board of Directors of the Florida Adoption Council.
