2024 Inductees Honored by Herb Falk Society for Exceptional Pro Bono Service
The Greensboro Bar Association recognized twelve inductees to the Herb Falk Society at its recent membership meeting on March 20, 2025, at Greensboro Country Club.
The Society was established in 2011 to honor the life and work of the late Herbert S. Falk, Jr., a former Greensboro Bar Association president who was deeply committed to pro bono service.
