2008 GP Hall of Fame Class Selected
Article Date: 4/1/2008
The General Practice Hall of Fame of the North Carolina Bar Association will enshrine six North Carolina lawyers on Friday evening, June 20, at the NCBA Annual Meeting in Atlantic Beach.
The ceremony will take place at the Coral Bay Club, scene of the 2006 induction ceremony.
Attorneys comprising the 2008 induction class are NCBA Past-President Charles Burgin of Marion, Roy A. Cooper Jr. of Nashville, Walter H. Jones Jr. of Mooresville, James M. Kimzey of Brevard, H. Edward Knox of Charlotte and Sally Scherer of Raleigh.
The Hall of Fame, sponsored by the NCBA’s GP, Small Firm and Solo Section, was established in 1989. Membership is granted in recognition of a lifetime of exemplary service and high ethical and professional standards and for serving as a role model for all lawyers in North Carolina.
To be eligible, lawyers must have practiced law for at least 25 years, a significant portion of that time having been devoted to the general practice of law, and be members in good standing of the N.C. State Bar.
Inductees have exhibited throughout their practice the highest standards of ethics and professional competency, and have rendered a high level of service to the legal profession and their communities.
This year’s induction class brings membership in the Hall of Fame to 112 attorneys.
