  • Dawn Smith, Managing Partner

    Dawn’s dream of becoming a lawyer solidified in her heart on an eighth-grade field trip to Washington D.C. While there, her group attended a session of the U.S. Supreme Court. The lawyers stood at the front of a formal gallery surrounded by marble columns arguing passionately for their client’s rights, their voices raised to Justices perched high above in black robes. Unwavering, they fought to positively impact the lives of their clients with one voice and one day in court. At that moment it was clear — through the law, one voice can touch many lives.
