Labor & Employment Law Section Distinguished Practitioner and Service Award

The Distinguished Practitioner and Service Award Nominating Committee is accepting nominations from now until Friday, July 31, 2020. The Award exists to recognize an employment law practitioner for “Outstanding Service, Leadership, and/or Significant Contributions to the Development of Labor and Employment Law in North Carolina.”

The Award was first given to Jon Harkavy in 2008 and was known as the Harkavy Award until last year when Jon modestly requested that his name be removed from the award. Other former recipients of the Distinguished Practitioner and Service Award are: John J. Doyle, Jr. (2009); M. Daniel McGinn (2010); Travis Payne (2012); John W. Gresham (2018); and M. Ann Anderson (2019).

There are multiple members of the Labor & Employment Law Section deserving of and qualified to receive this award. Please take the time to nominate a deserving person you admire. The nominating committee look forward to receiving and reviewing this year’s nominations. The nomination form may be found at the Labor & Employment Law Section page or
