Each year, the SDLRLA gathers over 300 attendees, including lawyers, judges, and community leaders, to celebrate and acknowledge the trailblazers who have paved the way for progress within the legal field. This year, the Association is particularly proud to honor Judge Cazares, a founding member of SDLRLA, for his outstanding contributions to the organization and lifelong commitment to justice.
"For the past 15 years, we have proudly honored members of the judiciary, and I am pleased to announce that we will continue this tradition by honoring someone who holds a special place in the history of our Association," said SDLRLA President Agustin Peña. "Judge Cazares was present at the inception of the San Diego La Raza Lawyers Association and shared a vision of what our organization could become. We will forever cherish his pivotal role in our community's progress."
