Twelfth Annual Daniel Levy Memorial Award for Outstanding Achievement in Immigration Law

LexisNexis® Matthew Bender® announces the Twelfth Annual Daniel Levy Memorial Award for Outstanding Achievement in Immigration Law.  The recipient will be announced at the 2013 AILA Conference in San Francisco.

A member of the Editorial Board of Bender’s Immigration Bulletin, Daniel Levy died at the age of 48 on September 14, 2001, in Los Angeles after a long battle with cancer. Mr. Levy was a prolific author, litigator, and scholar, and was widely known and loved by many in the immigration bar.

With this annual award LexisNexis® Matthew Bender® seeks to honor an individual who emulates the values that informed Mr. Levy’s life and work:

- enthusiastic advocacy on behalf of immigrant clients;

- deep scholarship in immigration law; and

- an expansive vision of justice.

We welcome nominations of all persons (not only attorneys), who have been working on the local and/or state level, as well as those who are known on the national level, and those who have been quietly toiling on behalf of immigrants, wherever they may be located.
