We received this message from David Hall, past president of the Young Lawyers Division regarding Sean Reyes. Congratulations Sean from UMBA!
Sean Reyes has been chosen by the Young Lawyers Division of the American Bar Association to receive the 2006-2007 National Outstanding Young Lawyer Award. The award will be presented to Sean at the February 2008 Midyear Meeting of the American Bar Association in Los Angeles, California.
Sean was selected after the American Bar Association reviewed nominations received from all over the country. The award is presented to a young lawyer who exhibits professional excellence, service to the profession and the bar, service to the community, and/or a reputation for the advancement of legal ethics and professional responsibility.
Thank you to all those that wrote letters in support of Sean's nomination.
This is the first year the ABA has presented this award, so it is a special honor to have the first award go to an attorney from Utah.
Please join me in congratulating Sean for this very prestigious award.
