Carolyn Lamm Named As Influential Lawyer
August 6, 2007, National Law Journal

The National Law Journal has named Carolyn Lamm as one of their 50 Most Influential Women Lawyers. Last year Ms. Lamm was named to The National Law Journal’s list of the 100 Most Influential Lawyers in America.

Members of the list are chosen based on a set of criteria that include the candidate having a national impact in their legal field and beyond during the last five years.  In particular, they are looking for female attorneys with the demonstrated power to change the law, shape public affairs launch industries and be a leader in their field.

From The National Law Journal:
Lamm's reputation as a successful international arbitration and commercial litigation attorney landed her an appointment by President Clinton to the U.S. Panel of Arbitrators for International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID), a collection of the country's best arbitrators who are called upon in international arbitrations. From the panel, she was selected to arbitrate in ADF v. U.S., a case filed by a Canadian investor under Chapter 11 of the North American Free Trade Agreement. She was appointed by the government of Uzbekistan to the Uzbek Panel of Arbitrators for ICSID. Lamm has represented nations across the globe, including Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, Hungary, Bulgaria, Sweden and Switzerland, in international trade deals. Among the most significant is her representation of the government of Philippines in Fraport v. Philippines and PIATCO v. Philippines, involving the alleged nullification of a concession contract and expropriation of an international air terminal. Lamm is a former chair of the ABA's Standing Committee on the Federal Judiciary, and she led the committee in reviewing White House nominations for district and appellate court judges.
