Stephen Saltzburg Is the Recipient of the John H. Pickering Achievement Award
Stephen A. Saltzburg received the 2021 John H. Pickering Achievement Award, presented by the ABA Senior Lawyers Division. The award honors the life and accomplishments of John H. Pickering for his pro bono work and law-related societal issues that affect older adults. The award is given to a lawyer or judge with a demonstrated legal ability and an esteemed service record to the profession and their community, making serious efforts to improve the access to justice for all.
"The lawyer who nominated me, Neal Sonnett, and I serve together in the American Bar Association House of Delegates representing the Criminal Justice Section," Saltzburg said upon receiving the award. "Neal won the award in 2008, the second year it was given. People I have worked with for many years have won it, as well, including the Honorable Bernice Donald of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit who won the Award in 2014. It is a thrill to be in their company."
