Respected Advocate Award (RAA) Previous Recipients

MDTC/MAJ Respected Advocate Award:

Every year MDTC and MAJ each present a "Respected Advocate Award."  The MDTC annually gives the award to a member of the plaintiff’s bar for the purpose of recognizing and honoring the individual’s history of successful representation of clients and adherence to the highest standards of ethics.  The MAJ does the same annually for a defense practitioner.  In so doing, we promote mutual respect and civility.
