Carolyn Lamm Named One of Washington's Most Influential Women Lawyers
June 28, 2010, National Law Journal

The National Law Journal named Washington, DC partner Carolyn Lamm one of "Washington's Most Influential Women Lawyers." These lawyers are "power players," says the Journal, and were selected "for work that places them in an elite tier." In making its selections, the Journal recognizes "their work, their influence and the fact that they may have had to work a bit harder than many of their male colleagues to get where they are today."

In its profile of Lamm, the Journal focuses on her tenure as president of the American Bar Association (ABA). "Most presidents of the American Bar Association are visitors to Washington, flying in for occasional meetings with government officials. Carolyn Lamm isn't one of those. The first Washington lawyer to head the 400,000 member ABA since 1958, she has used her year in charge to build bridges between the nationwide group and the nation's capital," writes the Journal. In addition, notes the Journal, "She oversaw a shake-up of the organization's management, brought in a marketing consultant to re-examine its message and guided a change in its fee structure to subsidize solo practitioners, government lawyers and nonprofit attorneys."
