Szurszewski Receives Bigelow Award
Last week the Thurston County Bar Association awarded Chuck Szurszewski its highest honor, the Daniel Bigelow Award. The award acknowledges one attorney annually for “outstanding professional and community service during the course of his or her career”. Chuck’s nomination referenced his service to the Washington State Bar Association as a member (and former chair) of the Family Law Executive Committee, to the Thurston County Bar Association as a member (and former president), and as a frequent volunteer and mentor for the Volunteer Legal Clinic sponsored by Thurston County Volunteer Legal Services. The award is named after Daniel Bigelow, a pioneer lawyer and statesman from Olympia.
