A New Standard of Justice: State Attorney Alexcia Cox on Leadership, Service, and Community Safety

In this episode of the Palm Beach North Podcast, we sit down with Alexcia Cox, Palm Beach County’s newly elected State Attorney for the 15th Judicial Circuit. A proud Palm Beach County native, Alexcia shares her journey from growing up in Royal Palm Beach to leading an office of over 100 attorneys and nearly 200 staff. She reflects on her early career prosecuting domestic violence cases, her rise through the ranks under State Attorney Dave Aronberg, and the leadership principles that continue to guide her: integrity, excellence, and fairness.

Alexcia discusses her first 100 days in office, unveiling new initiatives targeting violent crime, elder abuse, environmental offenses, and animal cruelty. She also shares the realities of the role, clears up public misconceptions, and opens up about her personal foundation of faith, service, and mentorship. From courtroom strategy to community outreach, Alexcia offers a powerful look at what it means to lead with purpose—and why public trust remains at the heart of everything she does.
