June 8, 2011 – We are proud to announce that Howard L. Nations has been selected as the 2011 recipient of the American Association for Justice (AAJ) Heavy Lifting Award, in recognition for his outstanding work in protecting the American civil justice system.
Mr. Nations received his award at a special AAJ Leadership Breakfast on Sunday, July 10, in New York, as part of the AAJ’s 65th Annual Conference.
As the world’s largest trial bar, AAJ promotes justice and fairness for injured persons, safeguards victims’ rights – particularly the right to trial by jury – and strengthens the civil justice system through education and disclosure of information critical to public health and safety. With members worldwide, and a network of U.S. and Canadian affiliates involved in diverse areas of trial advocacy, AAJ provides trial lawyers with the information and professional assistance needed to serve clients successfully and protect the democratic values inherent in the civil justice system.
