VOLUNTEER LAWYERS NETWORK VOLUNTEER OF THE YEAR
MARK VYVYAN
Mark Vyvyan, a shareholder in the Real Estate Group, was recognized this year as the Volunteer Lawyers Network (VLN) Volunteer of the Year. Mark was selected to receive this award by the VLN staff for his dedication and work at the VLN Housing Clinic. Mark was instrumental in establishing the clinic in 1999, run in partnership with Mid-Minnesota Legal Aid, and has been a consistent volunteer since. Aside from attending clinic, Mark has taken many housing cases on a full-representation basis, often working with, and mentoring, younger associates and paralegals. Because of his steadfast commitment, VLN said, “[We] are pleased to honor you and your commitment to housing on multiple levels.” At the award ceremony, Mark, inspired by Spiderman, thanked VLN for the award and reminded others that: “With great power comes great responsibility.”
