Hanna Wurgaft Selected for Maine State Bar Association’s Leadership Academy 

Category:

Brann & Isaacson is pleased to share that associate Hanna Wurgaft has been selected for the Maine State Bar Association’s Leadership Academy.  

The MSBA’s Leadership Academy promotes and encourages leadership and professionalism by identifying present and future leaders who are members of the MSBA, and to provide them with a program designed to develop leadership skills; foster camaraderie; and provide exposure to leaders in the legal, business and government communities.  

Each year, up to 12 attorney members are selected for the prestigious academy from both public and private sectors, varying firm sizes, and different backgrounds, practice areas, and geographic areas across Maine. Hanna not only joins a talented group of attorneys that will make a significant impact on the state in the years to come, but also a long list of B&I colleagues who have graduated from the program in years past.  

B&I is committed to cultivating the next generation of legal leaders in Maine. One of the ways the firm does so is not only encouraging its younger attorneys to participate in the Leadership Academy, but also sponsoring the academy. Learn more about the academy here.
