“I’m deeply honored to receive this recognition from NAPABA,” said Alexander Payne, Assistant Managing Partner at Minyard Morris. “It’s a privilege to be recognized among such a talented group of attorneys who dedicate themselves to making a positive impact around the country. It’s why I became a lawyer. I want to make a positive impact in the lives of others, and it fuels my passion to continue advocating for justice and equality.”
