Maslon partner Judah Druck appreciates that he will receive the 2023 Arthur T. Pfefer Memorial Award from the Twin Cities Cardozo Society.
But he would do what he does in the community — including working pro bono for the Advocates for Human Rights and serving as president of Congregation Darchei Noam — regardless.
“I’d be happy doing everything I do without any sort of recognition,” Druck said. “Just being part of this community is important enough. Having said that, it is nice.”
The community, Druck said, welcomed and supported him as a newcomer to Minnesota. He connected with Maslon through a partner he met at the synagogue.
Druck specializes in insurance coverage litigation, helping policyholders submit claims, dispute denied claims or litigate if need be.
The Pfefer award goes to a Jewish law student or attorney age 35 or younger who exhibits ambition and determination, realizes academic or professional success and has a strong commitment to the Jewish and general community.
Druck will receive the award in June at the annual dinner for the Cardozo Society, an affinity group for Jewish attorneys, judges and law students. It is sponsored by the Jewish Federation of Greater St. Paul and the Minneapolis Jewish Federation.
Pfefer, who was raised in St. Paul, earned a law degree at the University of Minnesota in 1967 and was hired by the Maslon firm. But the U.S. Army captain was killed in action in July 1969 in Vietnam before he could begin his legal career.
