Deadline for two MDTC awards approaching
The deadline for two Michigan Defense Trial Counsel awards is approaching. The deadline for the Young Lawyers Section Golden Gavel Award and the Excellence in Defense Award is Saturday, Jan. 10.
The Eleventh Annual Young Lawyers Section Golden Gavel Award will be presented on Friday, May 15, during the MDTC Awards Banquet at the H Hotel, Midland, Michigan.
Those interested are invited to submit a nomination, with particular emphasis on the enumerated criteria. Those nominating are free to attach letters of recommendation from any source.
Candidates need not be a current member of the MDTC. However, each must be a member in good standing with the State Bar of Michigan, and serve as defense counsel.
Established in 1992, the Annual MDTC Excellence in Defense Award is designed to honor those civil defense counsel who have over a number of years through their professionalism, intelligence, creativity, judgment, personality, sensitivity, civility, advocacy skills, community involvement and efforts to educate younger attorneys, promoted the practice of the defense bar and the representation of their clients both in and outside of the courtroom. It also recognizes contributions beyond their normal roles as an advocate.
