Equity and Inclusion

The ABA Commission on Women in the Profession established the Margaret Brent Women Lawyers of Achievement Awards in 1991 to celebrate female lawyers for their professional accomplishments and support of other women in the legal profession.

She was a master negotiator, an accomplished litigator and a prominent figure in Maryland.
