Our members are high-achieving legal professionals in private practice, government organizations, non-profit organizations and corporations. We are proud of their success and hard work, and as a group, we want to tell their stories.

AWL champions its members in award programs sponsored by various organizations, associations and the media. We have successfully nominated and advocated for members in local, state and national awards, among them:

• The Missouri Bar
•  Kansas Bar Association
• Kansas City Metropolitan Bar Association
• Missouri Lawyers Weekly
• Kansas City Business Journal
• American Bar Association
• National Conference of Women Bar Associations

Our process:

1. Throughout the year, our Awards & Scholarships Committee monitors recognition opportunities that are relevant to our members.
2. When nominations open, the Committee solicits candidates from the membership by email.
3. The Committee evaluates the candidates and makes a final recommendation to the AWL Board of Directors.
4. The AWL submits an official nomination.
