The Hispanic National Bar Association has appointed Lorenzo Trujillo, assistant dean at the University of Colorado at Boulder School of Law, as its general counsel.

Trujillo will provide legal advice and representation to the association's president and board of governors. The appointment was announced Oct. 16.

"We are fortunate to have Lorenzo Trujillo serve the association as its general counsel," said Jimmie V. Reyna, national president of the Hispanic National Bar Association. "He is an exceptional lawyer with an outstanding reputation as a man of integrity and the highest legal ethics whose advice and counsel has already proven of great value to us."

Trujillo earned a Bachelor of Arts, a Master of Arts and a Juris Doctor from CU-Boulder. He also has a Doctor of Education from the University of San Francisco. After graduating from CU's law school in 1993, he practiced law as a partner in the Denver law firm of Frie, Arndt & Trujillo and as in-house counsel in Adams County School District 14.

Trujillo came to CU-Boulder in 2004, where he is the assistant dean of students and professional programs for the law school.
