The awards, sponsored by LexisNexis, are free to enter and open to all lawyers, IBA members and non-members alike. They will be presented during the 2020 IBA Annual Conference, in Miami, USA, 1–6 November.
IBA President
Horacio Bernardes Neto said: ‘At the IBA, we believe that being a good lawyer
is not simply a case of performing the required duties. As the global voice of
the legal profession, we are committed to showing appreciation for those who
dedicate their lives to creating a fairer society. I encourage anyone who knows
of a worthy lawyer to nominate them for an IBA Award in recognition of their
achievements.’
