Judge Mark Falk Recognized by the Essex County Bar Association
Last week the Honorable Mark Falk, Chief U.S.M.J. (Ret.), was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award by the Essex County Bar Association (ECBA). This award recognizes one Essex County attorney whose integrity, varied and numerous contributions, and professional achievements over the course of her or his extended legal career merit singular recognition. This award is presented annually at the ECBA’s 50-Year Event.
“Congratulations to all. The honorees are an inspiration to us and to future generations of lawyers,” said Managing Partner Liza M. Walsh. “We are all beyond proud of Mark and proud to practice law together.”
