Mr. Schultz is very active in the legal profession locally, state-wide, and nationally.  He is frequently asked to serve in leadership positions in the various organizations that he is involved with.  Currently, Mr. Schultz is president of the Monroe County (Bloomington, Indiana) Bar Association for 2008.  He is also a member of the Indiana State Bar Association, where he serves as a member of the House of Delegates, and a member of the Indiana Trial Lawyers Association, where he serves on the Board of Directors.

Mr. Schultz has received numerous awards and recognitions during his nearly 12 year career as a Trial Lawyer.  In 2005, he received the top award for a lawyer in practice less than ten years from both the Indiana Trial Lawyers Association and the American Association for Justice.  First, he was the 2005 recipient of the Max Goodwin Award from the Indiana Trial Lawyers Association.  The Max Goodwin Award is named after a former President of ITLA and is given each year to an Indiana Trial Lawyer in practice less than ten years who has achieved either a great verdict on behalf of a client, advanced Indiana law in a positive direction for Indiana Consumers, or provided a great deal of community service. 
Mr. Schultz was also the 2005 recipient recipient of the F. Scott Baldwin Award from the American Association for Justice. The award is named after Scott Baldwin from Marshall, Texas, one of the greatest Trial Lawyers in America.  The award is given each year by AAJ to, "the most outstanding young trial lawyer in America."  Both awards are great honors and demonstrate Fred's dedication to his clients and to the legal profession. 

Most recently, Mr. Schultz has been named a “Super Lawyer” for the year 2008 by Law & Politics Magazine, and the publishers of Indianapolis Monthly.  The Super Lawyer award is given out only after an extensive peer review and screening process of all the lawyers in Indiana.  The title “Super Lawyer” is given to those attorneys who are considered to be among the top 5% of all lawyers in the State of Indiana.

All of these awards and recognitions are indicative of the level of respect given to both Fred Schultz and his partner, Betsy Greene by attorneys in the State of Indiana, and across America.
