As a graduate of the University of Florida and Cumberland School of Law, Dale was well trained and equipped to become a trial lawyer. Upon first arriving in South Florida in 1986, Dale began his career with the State Attorneys Office, where he successfully prosecuted persons charged with various crimes, from homicide to child abuse.
