Women Criminal Defense Attorneys: NACDL's Champion Magazine Highlights Women in Criminal Defense

The NACDL just published an issue of the Champion Magazine focused solely on women in Criminal Defense.  Women lawyers exclusively wrote the articles contained in the issue, which sheds a bright light on the experience and expertise that women continue to bring to the field. One column that particularly resonated with me shines light on the problems many women across the country have faced accessing clients in jail.

I was honored to write the foreword for the magazine, which really serves as a call to action to women in the field to do more in terms of supporting each other. Please consider joining NACDL if you are not a member, as it offers unparalleled support for criminal lawyers. In addition, there are many opportunities through NACDL to connect with other women in the field.

You can view the foreword in PDF format here, or click here to view it as a web page.  I would love to know what you think!
