Exemplar Awards Gala

The National Legal Aid & Defender Association (NLADA) Exemplar Awards honored members of the corporate counsel and private law firm communities that demonstrated outstanding leadership, vision, dedication and achievement in promoting and supporting equal justice in 2025. Each Exemplar honoree made invaluable commitments and contributions to pro bono and public service, and supported NLADA’s work to provide equal access to justice for all. Also presented were the Kutak-Dodds Prizes and Beacon of Justice Awards. Check out last year's Gala.
