For the upcoming 2022-2023 bar year, Justin Faith will again serve as a member in the Tennessee Bar Association (TBA) House of Delegates and he will be the Meetings Coordinator for the TBA Young Lawyers Division (YLD). Justin also received the 2022 Presidential Award for Distinguished Service in recognition of his substantial contributions and many years on the TBA YLD Executive Committee.

Sam Elliott was re-elected to an additional three year term on the Tennessee Bar Foundation Board of Trustees. The Foundation honors attorneys who have distinguished themselves in the profession by electing them to membership as "Fellows," and uses their contributions to support law-related public interest projects. By direction of the Tennessee Supreme Court, the Foundation administers Tennessee's IOLTA (Interest On Lawyers' Trust Accounts) program.
