In 2015 Mr. O'Donnell received the honor of being one of the few Alaska attorneys to be inducted as a Fellow in the American College of Trial Lawyers. "The American College of Trial Lawyers, founded in 1950, recognizes the very best trial lawyers from the United States and Canada. The College's Fellows are chosen strictly by invitation and only after a rigorous and lenghty investigation. The candidate must be identified as a highly skilled trial lawyer in the opinion of judges and practitioners, and as a person whose ethics, moral standards and collegiality are above reproach. Fellowship is limited to one percent of the lawyers in any individual State or Providence, and the candidate must have practiced for at least 15 years."
