Stephen Haedicke Receives President’s Award at LACDL Annual Tate Banquet in Recognition for Representing Wrongfully Terminated District Public Defenders
Mr. Stephen Haedicke received a great honor on this past Friday, December 5, 2025, at the annual Tate Banquet of the Louisiana Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, where he was presented with the President’s Award. This award was in recognition of his work representing five wrongfully terminated District Public Defenders. He would like to thank the LACDL and its immediate past President Jim Boren for this award. He would also like to thank his friend and mentor Rick Schroeder, who also represents the District Public Defenders and who was honored with the Justice Albert Tate award at the banquet, which is LACDL’s highest honor. It is a pleasure and privilege to be practicing law with Rick again.
