Judge Mark A. Juhas of the Los Angeles Superior Court, a member of Southwestern鈥檚 adjunct faculty since 2006, will be honored by the Levitt & Quinn Family Law Center at the nonprofit organization鈥檚 2016 Stand for Justice Gala. He will receive the 鈥淥utstanding Community Service鈥 Award during the event that will be held on September 17, 2016 at the Skirball Cultural Center.

Judge Juhas teaches Family Law and Community Property at Southwestern and has encouraged students to go into the field and to engage in public interest activities. As the keynote speaker at Southwestern鈥檚 2016 Public Service Luncheon in April, he urged students to always make time to use their legal expertise to help those in need. 鈥淚f you let it, your job in the law will take all of your time,鈥 he said. 鈥淗ave the courage to make time for pro bono work. Tell your colleagues, and encourage them to do it, too. Make pro bono service part of the fabric of your career. You will not be sorry you did.鈥
