Call for Nominations! 2023 Lifetime Achievement Award
At the 2020 Annual General Meeting of the Peel Law Association, the Board of Directors presented the PLA Lifetime Achievement Award to Marty Klein. It is the goal of the PLA Board of Directors to present the award annually at the Annual General Meeting dinner. Regretfully, the global pandemic disrupted our awards for the last few years. The PLA Lifetime Achievement Award recognizes the substantial contributions made to the practice of law and the local community by a past or present member of the Peel Law Association. The nominated individual will have held a minimum ten-year membership with the Peel Law Association. It is the Board’s intention to formally recognize members of our own legal community for their years of dedication and service. Please complete the following information and forward all relevant documentation directly to the PLA for the consideration of the Nominating Committee as provided below:
The deadline for accepting submissions is 4:30 pm on Friday, February 10, 2023.Sincerely on behalf of the Nominating Committee, |
Please remit to: Nominating Committee, c/o Peel Law Association, |
