Senterfitt honored by state commission
Atlanta lawyer Shelley Senterfitt has received the Gender Justice Award, the highest honor from the Georgia Commission on Family Violence.
"For many years, Ms. Senterfitt has been an articulate and fearless voice for abused women and children at the Legislature," Greg Loughlin, the commission's director, said. Senterfitt's legal practice focuses on family law matters, and she serves as a guardian ad litem in courts and lobbies on behalf of anti-domestic violence organizations.
