Professor Gwendolyn Leachman of University of Wisconsin Law School has been named one of Wisconsin Law Journal's Up and Coming Lawyers for 2017. Leachman, who joined the Law School faculty in 2014, teaches courses in labor relations, employment discrimination, and torts.

According to Wisconsin Law Journal, "The award recognizes attorneys who — right out of the starting gate — have shown themselves to be rising stars. With eight years or less of experience, honorees have handled challenging legal issues, taken steps to improve the justice system and given of themselves to their communities."

Seventeen UW Law alumni also made this year’s Up and Coming list, along with Leachman:

A reception honoring the 2017 Up and Coming Lawyers will be held Tuesday, Sept. 19, at the Harley-Davidson Museum in Milwaukee.
