Welcome to another installment of our “Beyond the Courtroom” series: a recap of recent events our attorneys have attended. From conferences and lectures to summits and symposiums, and more, the BGL team is proud to stay connected to the legal and local communities.
Jacqui Cadman attended the Women’s White Collar Defense Association’s Summer Southern Soirée in Washington D.C. on June 24, where she enjoyed an evening of connection and conversation with fellow leading women criminal defense attorneys.
Anthony May and Lauren DiMartino joined WeAchieve—a premier, person-centered organization supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in Central Maryland—for its 3rd Annual WeAchieve Champions Award Celebration on June 25th. The event marked more than 70 years of WeAchieve’s service in the community. At the celebration, WeAchieve honored retired BGL managing partner Sharon Krevor-Weisbaum with its Legacy Award for her decades of advocacy and leadership. Sharon’s connection to the organization, formerly known as CHI, began years ago when she represented them as a client. Since then, she has been a steadfast advocate, working on behalf of and alongside individuals with disabilities to advance equity and opportunity—work that BGL has proudly carried on following her retirement. Congratulations, Sharon!
Jacqui Cadman also attended the American Constitution Society for Law and Policy’s National Reception on June 18 at The George Washington University Student Center Continental Ballroom. Jacqui enjoyed meeting other D.C.-based professionals in the legal industry and coming together with community as the crucial work of protecting the rule of law and our democratic institutions continues.
