Jakubowski Honored as 2010 Legal Professional of the Year

Joni Jakubowski was named the 2010 Legal Professional of the Year by the Greater Milwaukee Association of Legal Professionals.

Each year, the Greater Milwaukee Association of Legal Professionals honors one of their own as the Legal Professional of the Year.

Nominations are accepted during the months of November, December and January. Any GMALP member in good standing who is employed and has at least five (5) years' legal experience is eligible to compete for this award.

Nominees are judged on the following:

• Legal secretarial skills and experience;

• Service to GMALP, WALP and NALS

• Civic and charitable activities

Three outside judges are selected by the chairman of the Legal Professional of the Year Committee (the previous year's recipient). The panel of judges consists of one attorney, one judge and one law office administrator. Each judge has one vote. The chairman may vote only in the case of a tie.

The last time the Association gave out this award was 2005.
