Bart Lazar Honored with 2024 Thomas R. Leavens Award from Chicago’s Lawyers for the Creative Arts

Seyfarth partner Bart Lazar was recognized with the Thomas R. Leavens Award by Lawyers for the Creative Arts in recognition of his outstanding service to LCA both as a volunteer and a member of the executive committee. The Leavens Award is presented annually to a lawyer who has shown distinguished support for the arts in Chicago throughout his career. Lazar has served LCA as a board member for many years.

“Getting involved with LCA, first as a volunteer and later as a member of the Board was really a natural outgrowth of my legal work in intellectual property law, but even more so my personal support for creative artists and involvement in the music industry,” said Lazar.

Lazar focuses his practice on helping clients identify, protect, commercialize, and enforce intellectual property rights. Seyfarth also provides pro bono representation of LCA clients.
