Compleat Lawyer Awards

The Compleat Lawyer Awards were established in 1992 by the University of South Carolina School of Law Alumni Council (formerly the Alumni Association) to recognize alumni for outstanding civic and professional accomplishments. Recipients are individuals who have made significant contributions to the legal profession and exemplify the highest standards of professional competence, ethics and integrity.

Congratulations to our 2022 Compleat Lawyer Recipients!

The Platinum, Gold and Silver Compleat Lawyer Award recipients will be honored during an in-person ceremony on Thursday, April 14, 2022. Space is limited, so reserve your seats for the awards ceremony today.
