The New Tax Lawyer Committee (NTLC) is currently accepting nominations for the 2024 Mentor of the Year Award.

The NTLC traditionally recognizes the efforts of one truly outstanding mentor with the Mentor of the Year Award. The 2024 Mentor of the Year Award will be presented at the Tax Section’s End of the Year Celebration on October 4, 2024, at Schwabe, Williamson & Wyatt P.C. in Portland from 5:30 – 7:30 pm.

Eligibility

Any attorney who is a member in good standing of the OSB Taxation Section and is nominated by a person mentored by the attorney is eligible to receive the award. Because the NTLC gives the award, the mentor-mentee relationship must be related to the practice of tax law, and both the nominee and the nominating person must be members of the OSB Taxation Section. Participation in the NTLC Mentor Program is not required. Because mentoring is different for each individual, the award criteria aim to recognize the diversity of those relationships by allowing the selection committee to take all factors into account when selecting a recipient.

Nominations

Nominations must be in writing and should describe the nominee’s qualification for the award. All nominations must include the name and contact information for both the nominee and the nominating person as well as an explanation of why the nominating person believes that the nominee deserves the award.

Submit your nomination to Nicholas Rogers ([email protected]) before September 6, 2024 at 5 p.m.
