This year, Wilson Sonsini and one individual received the award.

The National Public Service Award "recognizes significant pro bono legal contributions of law firms, corporate law departments, and individual business lawyers that demonstrate a commitment to providing legal services to individuals and entities that could not otherwise afford them,” the ABA notes.  The firm received the award primarily for transactional work assisting various nonprofits that serve communities.
