Women's history month

 

LACBA's 2025 Women's History Month Honorees include PJ Edmon (again! Since it appears she has been so honored before, appearing on the "previous years" listing as well).

Also, Friday's DJ had a profile of Margaret Grignon: Exceptional Expertise: Retired Justice brings appellate, trial court experience to alternative dispute resolution
  • Retired justice Margaret M. Grignon spent 14 years on the California Court of Appeal, where she wrote more than 2,200 opinions, including 160 that were published.
  • Grignon was appointed to the 2nd District Court of Appeal, Division 5, in 1990. She decided to step down in 2005, in part, because she wanted to try something different. So, she instead practiced as an appellate lawyer for 10 years at Reed Smith LLP before launching the Grignon Law Firm with her daughter, attorney Anne Grignon, in 2016.
