Return to News Williams & Connolly Partners Featured as Champions and Pioneers in Legal Times June 2009 Download PDF Partner Ana Reyes and late founding Partner Raymond Bergan were featured in The Legal Times portion of The National Law Journal in the special section: Champions, Visionaries & Pioneers.
Ms. Reyes was recognized as a Champion for her pro bono efforts and advocacy for civil liberties. She was recognized for her role in directing the firm's pro bono efforts for asylum applicants. Last year her work helped obtain a ruling and inspire a Justice Department order that will help women who have suffered mutilation gain refugee status.
The late Raymond Bergan was remembered in the Pioneers section for those who passed away in the past year, but whose legal legacy has enriched the Washington bar. Mr. Bergan continues to be regarded by his colleagues as one of the most skilled litigators of his generation.
