WBA News & Announcements
There are currently two judicial openings for the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. Applications are due by August 18, 2017.
The Lelia J. Robinson Award honors women attorneys who have captured the spirit of Lelia J. Robinson, the first woman admitted to practice in Massachusetts. The award recognizes women who, like Robinson, are pioneers in the legal profession and have made a difference in the community. This year, the WBA is proud to recognize Hon. Margot Botsford (ret.) and Hon. Geraldine Hines with this award: two women who have made immeasurable contributions to the advancement of women in the legal profession.
The National Conference of Women’s Bar Associations (NCWBA) will recognize the WBA of Massachusetts with its 2017 Public Service Award for our work on the Pay Equity bill which was signed into law by Governor Baker on August 1, 2016.
This year, the gala will be on November 28 at the Marriott Copley Place. The event is a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with old colleagues, network, promote your business, and enjoy an evening with delicious food and beverages while also supporting leadership and business opportunities for women through the WBA.
