Broome among Charlotte area’s outstanding legal counsels

David Broome, vice chancellor and general counsel for the University, was named an outstanding general counsel by the Charlotte Business Journal. He and 21 other top lawyers for the region were recognized at a special event held recently at the Myers Park Country Club.

Broome was selected in the category of general counsel in a department with between two and 10 attorneys.

The outstanding legal counsels were chosen from nominations the Charlotte Business Journal solicited from its readers. Nominations were evaluated by a judging panel provided by the Association of Corporate Counsel’s Charlotte chapter with input from the journal’s editorial staff.

In April 2015, Broome received the Ann Majestic Distinguished Service Award from the N.C. Bar Association’s Education Law Section.

Broome, who joined UNC Charlotte in 2004, has served the state of North Carolina as a higher education law attorney for nearly 40 years. He earned a Juris Doctor from the UNC-Chapel Hill School of Law.
