Women in Law

Welcome!

Women in Law is a professional organization designed to promote relationships among women at UNC Law, other local law schools, and in the legal profession. We do this by hosting several events throughout the year, as well as taking advantage of opportunities to serve our community. Check out below for more information!

About Women in Law

The purpose of Women in Law is to address concerns and issues facing women who are entering the legal profession by creating a system of social and educational support for women and those concerned with women's issues during their legal education. This system will serve as a network by which women law students are introduced into the existing community of female lawyers and to other students, lawyers, employers, professors and judges who are committed to the growth of females in the legal profession.
