Celebrating Our Women Trailblazers

Modrall Sperling salutes our women attorneys, who continue the tradition of service established by the firm’s founders over 85 years ago. Roberta Cooper Ramo was the first woman in history to lead the American Bar Association, and also served as the first woman president of the American Law Institute. Modrall Sperling’s women lawyers are carrying on that legacy of leadership. Many are and have been leaders in professional and community organizations including the State Bar of New Mexico, the New Mexico Women’s Bar Association, the Hispanic National Bar Association, New Mexico Defense Lawyers Association, International Association of Defense Counsel, the Foundation for Natural Resources and Energy Law, Equal Access to Justice, United Way of Central New Mexico, Economic Forum of Albuquerque, the Greater Albuquerque Chamber of Commerce, the Albuquerque Hispano Chamber of Commerce, and Albuquerque Regional Economic Alliance.
