Pro Bono Institute Honors Judge Jonathan Lippman

Judge Jonathan Lippman, Of Counsel in our New York office, recently received the Esther F. Lardent Hall of Fame Award for Excellence in Pro Bono from the Pro Bono Institute (PBI). This award was established in 2016, in memory of PBI’s founding president, and recognizes individuals and organizations that have shown an extraordinary commitment to pro bono and have made a profound impact on advancing the goal of access to justice for all. The inaugural Hall of Fame Award was presented in 2018 to Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
