This recognition highlights attorneys who have demonstrated a strong commitment to protecting consumer rights and advocating for individuals navigating financial hardship through the bankruptcy system. NACBA, a national organization representing consumer bankruptcy attorneys and their clients, will formally recognize recipients during its Annual Award Luncheon in Boston on Friday, April 10.

Under his leadership, the firm has grown to become one of the largest bankruptcy-focused law firms serving clients throughout South Florida and Western Pennsylvania, while also being recognized for its contributions to pro bono legal services in Broward County.
