The Witkin Excellence in Public Service is presented annually to honor legal professionals who have a significant impact on their community through philanthropic, volunteer, pro-bono or advocacy efforts.  These leaders in the legal profession are honored for their social and humanitarian impact within their communities and the local economy.

“Heather Rosing is an amazing professional, a great human being, and one who comes along maybe once in a lifetime,” said Hon. Victor E. Bianchini, Ret. “Not only is she the managing partner of a highly successful law firm, and not only is she one of the premier professional responsibility attorneys in the nation, but she manages to  find a way to effortlessly lead the statewide California Lawyers Association. Her public service is unmatched. To say that her selection for this award is well-deserved is an understatement.”
