By: Snell & Wilmer For the second year in a row, Snell & Wilmer was the recipient of the Lied Award as law firm of the year for contributing the most pro bono hours of any firm in Southern Nevada for 2012, recording 1176 combined hours. In addition to the firm’s recognition, Cynthia L. Alexander, a partner in the Commercial Litigation Group of the Las Vegas office, received the Lied Award for the most pro bono hours of an attorney in 2012. Lied Awards are given in recognition of the Lied Foundation which gave the Legal Aid Center of Southern Nevada a Challenge Grant in 2000. The grant is based on how many pro bono hours lawyers and law firms donate to the Legal Aid Center on a yearly basis. This is the second year in a row a Snell & Wilmer attorney received this recognition. Several individual Snell & Wilmer attorneys were also recognized for taking one case in 2012 or for more than 50 hours of service.
