Kieffer Receives Prestigious Civic Medal of Honor

Manatt Senior Counsel will be presented with the Civic Medal of Honor at this year’s Inaugural Dinner hosted by the Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce on February 5, 2026, at the Ray Dolby Ballroom. This dinner hosts business, political and civic figures, and it serves as the annual kick-off for the Chamber’s regional work.

The Civic Medal of Honor is a prestigious award that recognizes individuals who have demonstrated sustained exceptional civic engagement, generosity, leadership and positive impact throughout the greater Los Angeles community over an extended period of time. Previous recipients include Warren Christopher, Magic Johnson and Sherry Lansing.

This recognition is among the best examples of Manatt’s longstanding commitment to public service and civic problem‑solving across Los Angeles, where the firm has spent over half a century shaping the region through public‑sector partnerships and community initiatives. George’s honor underscores both his legacy of service and the firm’s belief in meaningful civic engagement.
