John McDonald, a partner with McGuireWoods’ Charlotte office, was honored for his efforts during his tenure as the office’s managing partner from 2017 to January of this year.

“Before the firm had a formal alumni program, John made it a priority to engage the firm’s alumni,” according to his nominator essay. “With many of the 300 alumni from the Charlotte office still local, John began inviting alumni to events and creating programming specifically for them. … John also is a leader in promoting diversity and inclusion. He began the office’s first Black History Month celebration in 2020, and after hearing about how the 2020 murder of George Floyd profoundly impacted many of the office’s attorneys, John spent hours meeting with each of the office’s African-American lawyers learning what they needed and what the firm could do.”
