Vincent Russo’s Post

Congratulations to my good friend Judge Shondeana Morris on receiving the Atlanta Bar Association 2024 Outstanding Woman in the Profession Achievement Award. The Women in the Profession section of the Atlanta Bar Association hosted a wonderful award luncheon today for Judge Morris, and it was an honor to be one of her guests at the event. Judge Morris has been instrumental in bringing mental health awareness to the legal profession. She is truly committed to excellence in everything she does. 

I couldn’t be more excited for my better half on her new job as the General Counsel - Americas at CHEP. The company got a brilliant attorney and an exceptional woman with Suzanne Russo as the new GC. 

Thank you to everyone who submitted a nomination to the Judicial Nominating Commission for the vacancy on the Georgia Court of Appeals. For anyone interested, the Fulton County Daily Report published the list of nominees in the article linked below. There are many exceptional lawyers and judges on the list, which always makes our job to send a short list to the Governor challenging.

As co-Chair of Governor Kemp's Judicial Nominating Commission, we are in the process of accepting nominations of candidates to be considered for appointment to the Georgia Court of Appeals and the DeKalb County Superior Court. Members of the State Bar of Georgia who are interested in being considered should visit the Judicial Nominating Commission's website for additional information. https://jnc.georgia.gov/.

After receiving over 100 nominations for the vacancy on the Supreme Court of Georgia and conducting interviews for two days, the Judicial Nominating Commission's short-list of candidates has been sent to the Governor. For those interested, here is a link to the announcement - https://lnkd.in/dmPXqKP

Another excellent judicial appointment by Governor Kemp.

Our law firm is seeking an associate in the 2-4 year range. It would be a great opportunity for someone who wants significant responsibility early in their career. The position would involve both business and government-related litigation.
