Partner Brenda Lee has been named to DCA Live’s 2022 list of “Emerging Women Leaders in Law (Private Practice).” This recognition honors women in the Washington DC region who are advancing as leaders within their firms and the broader legal community.

As the Vice Chair of WilmerHale’s highly regarded Anti-Discrimination practice, Lee has extensive experience conducting sensitive internal investigations, equity audits, and broader culture reviews for clients in finance, tech, sports and entertainment, and the non-profit sector. She also maintains a significant white collar practice. Lee serves on the firm’s Pro Bono and Community Service Committee and is the co-liaison to the Maya Angelou Public Charter Schools. She is actively involved in recruiting and mentoring younger attorneys, including as the co-hiring partner for the DC office and a member of the Diversity Committee. She also gives back to the community, both through her pro bono work and by serving on the Board of Directors for the Washington Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights and Urban Affairs.

DCA Live will celebrate the Emerging Women Leaders in Law at a reception later this year.
