The Harry Gulkin Award

Every year, the BACDL honors a member of the Florida Bar who embodies integrity, gentility, and is a lawyer of the highest quality.  Colleagues look to this lawyer not only as a mentor, but also as a friend. The person who is honored with the award raises the bar, and the bar is made better because that person is a member.

Since Past-President, Larry Davis, began the tradition back in 1992, Each year BACDL honors a member of the community who exemplifies the character and qualities of Harry Gulkin with BACDL’s Gulkin Award.
