Jeffrey Trachtman, a litigation partner at Kramer Levin Naftalis & Frankel, has been awarded the American Bar Association's 2013 Pro Bono Publico Award. The award is presented each year by the bar group's Standing Committee on Pro Bono and Public Service to honor lawyers, law firms, government offices, corporate law departments and others "that have enhanced the human dignity of others by improving or delivering volunteer legal services to the poor."
Trachtman has served on Kramer Levin's pro bono committee for about 25 years, including as chair from 1994-2011. On average, he spends 300 to 400 hours on pro bono and community service, he estimated. He has focused lately on LGBT rights and nonprofit work.
