At the Dallas Bar Association’s annual awards ceremony on November 29, former Justice Douglas Lang, now senior counsel at Thompson Coburn, received a Presidential Citation. The citation, awarded by Dallas Bar President Cheryl Camin Murray, acknowledges Justice Lang’s efforts on behalf of the Dallas Bar Association Law Firm Engagement Program.
As a facilitator of the engagement program, Justice Lang conducted meetings of the managing partners of Dallas law firms. The meetings created a spirit of professional camaraderie as the practice of law emerged from the pandemic. The program also addressed the resources available to lawyers who suffer from mental health challenges, which have seen a significant increase since the start of the pandemic.
