The honor is bestowed upon those lawyers whose careers have demonstrated outstanding dedication to the highest principles of the legal profession and to the welfare of society. Goosmann joins Omaha Managing Attorney, Joel Carney, who has been a Fellow with the group since 2015.
The Fellows is a global honorary society of attorneys, law faculty, and legal scholars who have exhibited a firm commitment to the highest principles of the profession. Membership of the Fellows is limited to one percent of all legal professionals licensed to practice in each jurisdiction. Fellows are nominated by their peers and elected by the Board of Directors of the American Bar Foundation. Since the inception in 1955, the Fellows have supported the foundation through contributions to further the field of legal research.
The American Bar Foundation is among the world’s leading research institutes for the empirical and interdisciplinary study of law. Almost 60 years old, the ABF is an independent nonprofit organization that seeks to advance the understanding and improvement of law through research projects of unmatched scale and quality on the most pressing issues facing the legal system.
