Real Property Distinguished Service Award

The Real Property Section is pleased to solicit nominations for the Distinguished Service Award, to be conferred in conjunction with the annual meeting of the Real Property Law Section.

Establishment of Award, Purpose and Criteria: The Real Property Section Distinguished Service Award is established to recognize, and to encourage others to emulate, extraordinary service to the Section, the legal profession or the public, above and beyond the call of any official duties to the Section, in an endeavor or endeavors relating to the field of business law and the mission and activities of the Section. Such endeavors could include, for example, leadership in the creation, promotion or execution of particular projects, programs or initiatives of the Section; contributions to the jurisprudence of real property; advocacy for law reform in the field of real property; promotion of public understanding of real property; continuing education of lawyers in the field of real property; creation or expansion of opportunities for pro bono service by real property lawyers; and other endeavors that reflect the professional ideal of service by lawyers to the profession and the public, beyond service to their clients. It is expected that the service to be so recognized will be extraordinary and distinguished, beyond the job well done or the duty fulfilled that is to be expected of good lawyers.

Additional Requirements: The recipient of the Award shall be a member of the Section and a person of good character who embodies the professional ideals of competence, service, integrity, independence and community.
