[ LAS VEGAS, Nev.] August 21, 2008 – The Las Vegas Chapter of the National Bar Association has selected Holland & Hart as "Law Firm of the Year." This award is given to a firm that has demonstrated a commitment to diversity at all levels and has handled matters yielding a positive benefit to the greater community.
The firm, which recently combined with Hale Lane, was recognized for its national sponsorship of the post-conference reception for the National Bar Association's Labor and Employment Law Conference. On a local level, the firm has offered to assist with judging for the Martin Luther King Jr. Drum Major for Justice Competition and to serve as the inaugural firm sponsor for the Diversity Roundtable, a program designed to give minority law students exposure to private law firms. In addition, the firm has provided pro bono legal representation to the local chapter.
Holland & Hart will be honored with this award at the scholarship awards banquet on November 1, 2008.
