The JPEG Award recognizes individuals who exhibit a long-term commitment to the creditors’ rights industry, demonstrate initiative and leadership, support young professionals, and are recognized as service and volunteer leaders. Candidates undergo a rigorous selection process, including an initial blind review by a committee of ALFN Board members, Executive Staff, and selected participants from the attorney-trustee and associate membership classes. The final determination is made by the ALFN Board of Directors based on the committee’s feedback.
Clara’s selection for this prestigious award underscores her unwavering commitment to the industry, her proactive approach to driving positive change, and her outstanding ability to foster strong relationships with clients and colleagues alike.
