The National Law Journal asked its readers to nominate female attorneys who have had a national impact in their fields and beyond during the last five years. It received nominations for nearly 200 attorneys, and NCLC's Robin Conrad was selected for inclusion in the list of the 50 Most Influential Women Lawyers in America. Here's what The National Law Journal had to say: 

"Conrad has devoted her career to building the National Chamber Litigation Center, the public policy law firm of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, into a litigation powerhouse. She has expanded the center's litigation portfolio to include a wide range of cases critical to U.S. business, stepping up its U.S. Supreme Court practice to shape the law on punitive damages, class actions, federal pre-emption of inconsistent state laws and securities litigation. Conrad has filed amicus briefs in all of the leading punitive damages cases before the high court. The moot court program she founded prepares top attorneys for argument before the court. Conrad's voice is often the first to comment in the press on rulings and legal trends."
