June 6, 2012
Susan Link, partner and head of Maslon's Estate Planning Group, was honored with the Minnesota State Bar Association Eugene P. Daly, Jr. Award on June 4, 2012. The award is presented by the Council of the Probate & Trust Law Section of the Minnesota State Bar Association and was created in honor of the late Gene Daly, Jr., a prominent Minneapolis probate and estate law practitioner whose participation within the bar was markedly above that of most people. The award, which has only been given to eight recipients since 1988, acknowledges those people who have devoted time, energy, and talent to the section and the estate planning and probate practice in general over and above the contributions of most people.
"I am so very honored to receive this award. It is a privilege to be associated with, and participate in, an organization such at the Probate and Trust Section that is continually striving to find ways to help us improve ourselves as attorneys and practitioners, and to become good community servants" said Susan. "The Section helps us to better our profession as a whole."
Susan has been an active member of the Minnesota State Bar Association's Probate & Trust Law Section and served as Chair in 2010. She also served as chair and is currently the program director for the Minnesota State Bar Association's Wills for Heroes program. Susan has presented extensively on the subject of probate and trust law, and taught as an adjunct professor at the University of St. Thomas School of Law. She has served as editor-in-chief and chapter author for multiple editions of the Minnesota Estate Administration Deskbook, as well as co-authored the Minnesota Probate Deskbook, and is a member of the American College of Trust and Estate Counsel.
Susan Link is the head of Maslon's Estate Planning Group and practices in the areas of estate planning, probate, and trust administration.
