Osborn Maledon Named Beacon of Justice Award Winner
Osborn Maledon P.A. (Arizona, USA) is the only Arizona-based law firm on the prestigious Beacon of Justice list. The seventeen law firms honored have all devoted considerable time and resources to delivering on the mandate of Gideon v Wainwright, which fifty years ago established the right to counsel for people accused of a crime and facing a loss of liberty.
"The National Legal Aid and Defender Association (NLADA) is delighted to announce the names of the 2013 Beacon of Justice Award winners. Each winner has been chosen for their accomplishments in advancing Gideon's principles through law reform or individual representation. A small sample of these successes include the exoneration of innocent people; landmark appellate victories that promote effective representation; pardons or commutations that ameliorate the impact of unnecessarily harsh and disparate sentences; and the dedication of tens of thousands of pro bono hours that ensured that individuals received competent counsel and fair treatment under the law."
