The annual Connecticut Legal Awards honors those attorneys and judges who have made a remarkable difference in the legal profession in Connecticut, whether in shaping the law, achieving outsized results for their clients, being an outstanding jurist or assisting those in need of legal services.

The "New Leaders in the Law" category recognizes lawyers "who have excelled in the courtroom, in client service and cultivation, in service to bar associations and in performing pro bono work or community service in a volunteer capacity."

"It is an honor to be selected as a 'New Leader in the Law' by the Connecticut Law Tribune," says Lombardi. "I am truly humbled to be recognized among this year's honorees."
