Dear Colleagues,
Today, on the occasion of International Women’s Day, I join the rest of the world in celebrating the remarkable achievements and contributions of women across all facets of life, including the legal profession. I applaud the strength, resilience, and unwavering commitment of women to the pursuit of equity, justice, and excellence.
As Chairman of the 2025 NBA-AGCPC, I reaffirm our dedication to promoting gender equality and empowering women in the legal profession. We recognize the vital role that women lawyers play in advancing the cause of justice, and we will continue to champion initiatives and policies that support their professional growth and leadership.
Let us remain united in our shared pursuit of equity, justice, and progress. Together, we must support, empower, and celebrate the women around us. Let us work toward building a world where all women can thrive, excel, and reach their full potential.
Happy International Women’s Day to all women lawyers and to women everywhere!
