This recognition is awarded to those legal professionals with outstanding contributions to both their community and their profession.
Ware currently serves as Chairman of the Board for Ruder Ware law firm, headquartered in Wausau, WI with an additional location in Eau Claire, Wis. “Lane’s passion for the legal profession continues to be an inspiration for everyone here in our firm. Savvy in marketing, customer service, and strategic direction, we continue to be shaped by Lane’s vision for what he wanted the firm to aspire to become,” comments Lon Roberts, managing partner.
True to George Ruder’s enduring philosophy, “We make our living here, we have a responsibility to give back to our communities,” Ware’s deep commitment to the community is best illustrated through the breadth of organizations advanced by his leadership. To highlight a few organizations, Ware presently serves on the board for the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum and the Aspirus Health Foundation. He previously served as a council member for the Wisconsin Humanities Council and as President of the Community Foundation of North Central Wisconsin. An accomplishment to credit Ware’s leadership skills includes the formation of The Performing Arts Foundation (PAF). Created to encourage entrepreneurial efforts at the local level, the PAF undertook the purchase and renovation of the existing Grand Theatre in 1972.
On May 16, 2008 at the Italian Community Center in Milwaukee, Wis., Ware will be honored among twenty other legal professionals, from practicing attorneys, to judges and educators.
