The 29h Annual Margaret Brent Awards at the 2019 Annual Meeting was an inspirational event honoring five outstanding women lawyers. Whom will we honor in 2020? Think about whom you'd like to nominate when nominations open in October.
Margaret Brent was the first woman lawyer in America, arriving in the colonies in 1638. The Margaret Brent Award, established by the Commission in 1991, recognizes and celebrates the accomplishments of women lawyers who have excelled in their field and have paved the way to success for other women lawyers.

Honorees receiving the Margaret Brent Award have achieved professional excellence in their field and influenced other woman to pursue legal careers, opened doors for women lawyers in a variety of job settings that historically were closed to them, and/or advanced opportunities for women within a practice area or segment of the profession.
