As an enduring tribute to Mr. Grantham's life and work in the practice of law, this award is made annually to an outstanding Texas lawyer. The award celebrates Grantham's life as a gifted and committed man and lawyer who devoted himself completely to every task he undertook. The recipient of this award exemplifies the qualities of an accomplished, talented and dedicated practitioner, a servant of the profession and an advocate for those we serve, demonstrating dedication and service with the same passion that defined Grantham's life and work.
