An AMA with Emily Doskow, Lawyer and Mediator Specializing in LGBTQ+ Family Law

We are honored to welcome Emily Doskow for a virtual AMA about her work specializing in family law for LGBTQ+ and other communities. Over the past 20 years, Emily has led efforts to serve the "dual goals of advancing social justice and helping individuals protect their rights to live free from discrimination in the family structure of their choice."

She has generously agreed to spend time with us to share insights about her work. We will be collecting questions from our community for Emily leading up to her virtual visit, and there will also be time for impromptu questions during the event.

*Please note that a Zoom link will be sent in the reminder email the day before the event. This event is a virtual gathering for women-identifying and nonbinary community
