May 31, 2025

Real Property, Probate and Trust Law Section of The Florida Bar

The Robert C. Scott Memorial Award was established in 1985 by the Real Property, Probate and Trust Law Section of the Florida Bar to memorialize the memory and many extraordinary accomplishments of Robert Claude Scott. At his death in 1982, Robert C. Scott was a dedicated member and Past Chair of the Section whose distinguished practice was primarily centered in Palm Beach County. Even though he completed his outstanding Chairmanship of the Section in 1973, Mr. Scott continued his tireless effort on behalf of the Section and the lawyers of Florida until his death. He never overlooked an opportunity to advance the objectives of the Section.

The Robert C. Scott Memorial Award was established in recognition of Mr. Scott's many years of untiring, devoted and valuable service to the Section. While not granted on an annual basis, the award will be granted when the occasion requires to those Section members who best exemplify the devotion and continued service of Robert C. Scott to the Section and its membership.
