The ABA Center for Professional Responsibility has announced that Robert H. Mundheim of Shearman & Sterling will be the recipient of the 2020 Michael Franck Professional Responsibility Award.
The Michael Franck Professional Responsibility Award is named in honor of Michael Franck, late director of the State Bar of Michigan and long-time champion of improvements in lawyer regulation in the public interest. The award is presented to individuals whose career commitments in areas such as legal ethics, disciplinary enforcement, and lawyer professionalism demonstrate the best accomplishments of lawyers. In a letter of support, Mr. Mundheim’s friends and colleagues in the ABA Business Law Section called him “The paradigm of the practicing business lawyer who incorporates ethics and professionalism into every part of his professional life.”
Mr. Mundheim will receive the award during the 2020 Professional Responsibility Fall Leadership Conference in October.
