The Broward County Women Lawyers’ Association is the Broward County chapter of the Florida Association
for Women Lawyers (FAWL), the State of Florida’s women’s bar organization.
BCWLA is a diverse group
of lawyers and judges who reside, work, and socialize in Broward County. The unifying factor for the BCWLA is the recognition
that the successful practice of law reaches far beyond the courtroom. While BCWLA members vary in terms of experience,
areas of practice, gender, age, and ethnicity, we share the common vision that a successful legal community thrives on the
commitment of its lawyers and judges to the legal and civic community. Throughout the year, BCWLA hosts monthly
luncheons aimed at helping lawyers to achieve their personal and professional goals. BCWLA members have the opportunity to
socialize, enjoy lunch at the Tower Club, and earn CLE credits while talented speakers share their knowledge, skills, and
experiences. For more information about the BCWLA or its activities, please contact us using the "Contact Us"
link on the left.
