David S. Tatel has been selected to receive the 2023 American Inns of Court Professionalism Award for the DC Circuit. Chief Judge Sri Srinivasan of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit will present the award during the DC Circuit Judicial Conference. Since 1994, Tatel has been a judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit. He took senior status recently and will retire from the court in August and join the pro bono department at Hogan Lovells in Washington, DC.

“Judge Tatel has dedicated his life to upholding the rule of law, imparting equal justice, and ensuring access to legal services for all citizens,” writes Judge Patricia A. Millett of the DC Circuit, who nominated Tatel for the award. “He is a beloved and highly respected member of our court, and a true treasure to the justice system.”
