Maria Diamond Receives two AAJ Awards at Annual Convention

In July 2020, Maria Diamond received two awards from the American Association for Justice (AAJ) at their annual convention. For the seventh time, Maria received the Wiedemann & Wysocki Award, which recognizes members who have made outstanding efforts in support of AAJ’s Political Action Committee (PAC). The award is named in honor of Fritz Wiedemann and James Anthony Wysocki, two New Orleans-based attorneys and active AAJ members who were traveling on assignment to help AAJ when they died in a tragic plane crash. This award recognizes members who have carried on their legacy and who are passionately committed to the principles of the civil justice system and AAJ’s mission.

At the same convention, Maria also received the Above and Beyond Award, which recognizes AAJ members who have made exceptional contributions to sustain and strengthen the organization. As Washington State Association for Justice (WSAJ) board member Ian Bird said, “. . . Maria does an incredible job for AAJ and its mission.”
