LAW was founded in 1974, when a group of UW Law School classmates decided to get together to discuss the joys and frustrations of practicing law. Among the founders were such familiar members of the Dane County legal community as Justice Shirley Abrahamson, Valerie Mannis, Eunice Gibson, and Jean Lawton. Some argued that an organization emphasizing women's interests and concerns was a superfluous rival to the existing bar.
