John Daniels Jr., chairman of the national law firm of Quarles & Brady LLP will receive the 2013 Midwest Urban Empowerment Award in the category of leadership from Community Connections Network Publications.
The Midwest Urban Empowerment Awards recognize influential leaders who have been instrumental in helping to change the lives of individuals. Daniels was chosen by CCN for his leadership in developing Quarles & Brady as an organization that gives back to the eight communities in which it maintains offices, including Milwaukee. The law firm, which is one of Wisconsin’s largest, offers substantial pro bono legal services to the disadvantaged, sponsors multiple programs that encourage firm employees to give time and money to a variety of charitable causes, and strives to promote diversity in the workplace.
Daniels will receive his award at the 2013 Midwest Urban Empowerment Awards ceremony on May 4, and will be featured in the Midwest Urban Empowerment Awards special event magazine.
Daniels has been chairman of Quarles & Brady since 2007.
