The awards will include categories that honor the various works of individual attorneys, as well as those of small, medium and large law firms during the past year. Additionally, CCLS will recognize several attorneys who have donated up to 200 hours of legal services during 2005. As a present is delivered wrapped bringing anticipation to the recipient, the names of the award winners will not be released prior to the event.
