Clark Hill’s Steven Richman Honored by ABA’s International Law Section

Clark Hill Member Steven Richman received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Bar Association’s International Law Section on May 4.

Richman was honored during the Section’s annual spring conference. He had spoken earlier that day on ethical issues in business and human rights for attorneys.

“Having been involved with the International Law Section for much of my career, I’m delighted and honored to receive this award,” Richman said. “The Section has been a great resource of knowledge and support, and having chaired it in 2017-2018 was a professional milestone. It is a close-knit international community that is a great benefit for its community of attorneys.

In addition to being a former chair of the then 17,000-18,000 member Section, Richman serves as one of its delegates to the ABA House of Delegates and is the ABA Representative to the United Nations. He also serves as the ABA representative to the International Bar Association and the International Association of Lawyers (UIA). He chairs the ABA’s Joint Editorial Board for International Law, and last year was awarded the Section’s Leonard J. Theberge Award for Private International Law.

Richman practices domestic and international commercial law, including mediation, litigation, arbitration, and appellate work, including distributorships, intellectual property, agency, art and photography law, professional responsibility, and contracts.
