Congratulations to Hamrick

On behalf of the State Bar of Georgia, I am writing to congratulate state Sen. William G. “Bill” Hamrick III on his appointment by Gov. Nathan Deal as a Superior Court Judge in the Coweta Judicial Circuit.
The citizens of Carroll, Coweta, Heard, Meriwether and Troup counties will benefit from Hamrick’s 20 years of experience in the legal profession, including his leadership in the public policy arena as chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Hamrick’s acceptance of this judicial appointment demonstrates his continued commitment to public service, which in turn serves to promote the cause of justice, uphold the rule of law and protect the rights of all citizens.
We wish him well in his new position.
Robin Frazer Clark. President, State Bar of Georgia
