Advocate of the Year     Julia Hernandez
“Julia Hernandez is an amazing person who does the work of at least 2 people and is always compassionate, professional and will do whatever she can to help a client. She has done this thankless job for a number of years all by herself. She is truly and awesome advocate.”
 
Enforcement Officer of the Year     Bill Fiegen
“Bill Fiegen for all his hard work serving the subpoenas. He always goes above and beyond night and day to get the subpoenas served. He deals with hundreds and subpoenas and has put in many years here at the DA’s office.”
 
Investigator of the Year     Bruce Naliboff
“Bruce Naliboff turns around investigation requests in less than 1 day because he personally responds to the request when no one else was available rather than calling another investigator off of a priority task to do it. He always responds with a smile and a plan for last minute requests to locate a witness for a same-day appearance.”
