The State Bar of Michigan honored members of the legal community at its 2008 Annual Meeting September 17-19 at the Hyatt Regency in Dearborn.
Richard Bernstein was the recipient of the John W. Cummiskey Pro Bono Award.
Blind since birth, Bernstein has taken on pro bono work in cases ranging from wheelchair access to Detroit buses, disabled access at Michigan Stadium, and the safety of disabled pedestrians at Oakland County roundabout traffic intersections.
He won the 2003-04 Regeana Myrick Award, given by the State Bar of Michigan Young Lawyers Section to recognize his commitment to public service. In 2002, the Macomb Intermediate School District presented him with a special honor for his work on behalf of disabled students and their families and last year, he was the Detroit Jewish Community Relations Council’s choice for its Activist of the Year honor.
