The New Jersey Commission on Professionalism in the Law will recognize 34 attorneys from across the state with Professional Lawyer of the Year Awards at a luncheon Oct. 11 at the Pines Manor in Edison.
The commission is a cooperative effort of the New Jersey State Bar Association, the state and federal Judiciary, and New Jersey's three law schools. The initiative's goal is to highlight the values that have historically made the practice of law a distinguished profession, and instill public respect for judges and the justice system.
The award winners are lawyers who are respected by their colleagues for their character, competence and exemplary professional behavior. See the full list of honorees below.
In addition, the Daniel J. O'Hern Award will go to former New Jersey State Bar Association President Richard J. Badolato, a civil trial attorney at Walsh, Pizzi, O'Reilly, Falanga. The Charles J. Hollenbeck Award will be presented to David G. Sciarra, executive director of the Education Law Center.

The case, filed Oct. 2 in Massachusetts District Court by the Brown Law Firm on behalf of Stephen Austen, accuses certain officers and directors of misleading investors in regard to Symbotic's potential for margin growth by failing to disclose that the company was not equipped to timely deploy its systems or manage expenses through project delays. The case, assigned to U.S. District Judge Nathaniel M. Gorton, is 1:24-cv-12522, Austen v. Cohen et al.

The complaint alleges that had Sunrun informed the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection that the plaintiff's employment had ended in 2017 and that he no longer held Sunrun's home improvement contractor license, he would not have been hit with charges, which were dismissed in May 2024.
