The Kutak-Dodds Prizes, established in 1989, are jointly sponsored by the Robert J. Kutak Foundation and NLADA. They are given in memory of Robert J. Kutak and Kenneth R. Dodds, former partners in the Omaha, Nebraska office of Kutak Rock, who were practitioners and advocates of public service, legal education and high ethical standards throughout their lives. In addition to legal services for the poor, the Kutak Foundation supports education in professional ethics, minority scholarships and a variety of other public interest projects. The Foundation is maintained entirely by Mr. Kutak's friends and associates.
