Our co-founder, Natasha Nazareth, has joined the Fellows of the American Bar Foundation — an honor reserved for only one percent of lawyers nationwide. 

A Force for Good Recognized Nationally 

The American Bar Foundation (ABF) Fellows is a global honorary society of attorneys, judges, and scholars whose careers demonstrate outstanding dedication to the highest principles of the legal profession. Membership is by invitation only, and Fellows play a vital role in supporting the ABF’s groundbreaking, interdisciplinary research that advances justice and strengthens the rule of law. 

Natasha’s nomination reflects not only her deep expertise and innovative approach to law, but also her commitment to joyful, purposeful work that transforms communities—values at the heart of our firm. As Maryland’s first certified benefit corporation law practice, we believe business can be a force for good, and Natasha’s recognition by the ABF underscores that belief in action. 

What It Means to Be a Fellow 

As a Fellow, Natasha will join distinguished peers in shaping conversations about law and society. Fellows gain access to exclusive educational programs, research seminars, and national events, while also contributing to the ABF’s mission of producing empirical research that informs policy and strengthens justice systems worldwide. 

This honor is not simply about prestige—it is about connection, collaboration, and change-making. Natasha’s work has always been about listening deeply, solving puzzles with creativity, and driving toward closure with empathy and optimism. Becoming a Fellow amplifies that mission on a national stage. 

Celebrating the Moment 

We see this recognition as a celebration of the values we live every day: courage, humility, fairness, and authenticity. Natasha’s invitation to the ABF Fellows is a reminder that when law is practiced with vision and heart, it can truly make “good trouble” and create lasting impact.
