On November 19, 2010, the National Center for State Courts recognized WilmerHale for providing 30 years of support of its programs. The firm was honored at the Annual Recognition Luncheon at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Washington, D.C., with guests including state chief justices, members of the NCSC Board of Directors, corporate general counsels, law firm and individual supporters of the National Center for State Courts.

The National Center for State Courts is an independent, nonprofit court improvement organization founded at the urging of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court Warren E. Burger. NCSC is the organization courts turn to for authoritative knowledge and information, because its efforts are directed by collaborative work with the Conference of Chief Justices, the Conference of State Court Administrators, and other associations of judicial leaders.
