2022 Top Women of Law

Listen to this article

Dear readers,

This special section honors Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly’s Top Women of Law for 2022, including our Circle of Excellence. This year’s Circle is made up of five women who have been honored in the past, but whose continuing achievements and contributions to the community merit additional recognition.

All Top Women honorees were selected by a panel comprised of members of the legal community and representatives of Lawyers Weekly. The judges chose to honor individuals who have made significant contributions to the legal profession while also serving as role models for young women entering the law.

I’m also pleased to announce this year’s scholarship recipient, Kaija Townsend. Kaija is a 3L at Boston University School of Law and will start at Ropes & Gray next fall. During her time in law school she has worked as a student advocate in the Immigrants’ Rights and Human Trafficking Clinic and volunteered with the Court Appointed Special Advocate program. Currently, she’s studying abroad at Bucerius Law School in Hamburg, Germany. You’ll learn more about her in the profile included in this section.

I hope that you enjoy reading about the impressive women featured here.
