“Judge Snyder and Marshall Grossman are standouts among their peers and have helped advance the legal profession in myriad ways both in and out of the courtroom,†says BHBA President John Rubiner.

Judge Snyder was nominated to the Court by President Bill Clinton in 1997. Prior to becoming a United States District Judge, she was a lawyer in private practice in Los Angeles and was a partner in the law firms Wyman Bautzer Kuchel & Silbert, Katten Muchin & Zavis and Corinblit & Seltzer. In 1978 and 1979, Judge Snyder, as a Board Member of the Beverly Hills Bar Association, helped to create Public Counsel, the nation’s largest pro bono law firm, and subsequently served on its Board of Directors and became the first woman to serve as the non-profit organization’s President. Presiding Justice Norman Epstein presents her award.

Marshall Grossman’s legal career spans more than four decades and has included numerous high profile clients and landmark cases. Among them, he served as lead counsel for Suzuki in landmark litigation against Consumers Union, he obtained on behalf of the Agudas Chasidei Chabad a judgment against the Russian Federation to recover religious texts that were seized during the Bolshevik Revolution and World War II, and successfully defended Apple Computer Inc. in patent infringement litigation. Grossman has lectured on trial advocacy at leading U.S. law schools and at annual meetings of the California State Bar and the American Bar Association. He has received the highest rankings from Best Lawyers in America and Chambers USA and Chambers Global. Committed to public service, Grossman has served on the board of the Beverly Hills Bar Association and as President of the BHBA Barristers. Feting Grossman at the Litigation Dinner are Dr. C.L. Max Nikias, University of Southern California President, Patrick Kelly, President of the State Bar of California, and Tom Girardi, who received the BHBA’s “Excellence in Advocacy Award†in 2012.

The Beverly Hills Bar Association, serving the Los Angeles region since 1931, is the sixth largest bar association in California with more than 5,500 members. Its mission is to serve its members, to lead the legal profession and to advocate for justice in the community.
