Each fall, Equal Justice Works honors lawyers who exemplify the values we hold dear—compassion, dedication, and commitment to achieving our nation’s promise of equal justice for all—at The Scales of Justice, a celebration of our community of lawyers.
The Scales of Justice raises critical funds needed to support our programs that mobilize passionate public service leaders.
