YOUNGER FEDERAL LAWYERS AWARDS

    The Younger Federal Lawyers Awards ("YFLA"), sponsored by the YLD, are designed to recognize outstanding federal attorneys who have three continuous years of federal service and who are under the age of thirty-six.  Nominations may be submitted by agency heads, general counsels or fellow attorneys throughout the country and overseas.  Award recipients are selected by a panel of federal judges.  The FBA hopes to encourage younger federal lawyers to attain high standards of professional achievement by recognizing outstanding federal attorneys.  Award recipients are announced at the YFLA Luncheon held annually in conjunction with the FBA National Convention.  The deadline for nominations is usually the last week of July.
