About Nassau County Women's Bar Association
Rooted in Garden City, New York, the Nassau County Women's Bar Association champions the advancement of women in the legal profession and society at large. As a chapter of the Women's Bar Association of New York, this organization brings together women attorneys and legal professionals united by a shared commitment to justice, equality, and professional excellence. The association's mission extends beyond individual career development to encompass systemic change—promoting fair and equal administration of justice while amplifying women's voices on matters of statewide, national, and international significance. Members benefit from a vibrant community of legal professionals engaged in meaningful committees, networking opportunities, and collaborative initiatives addressing important legal and social issues. The NCWBA celebrates the achievements and contributions of its members through distinguished awards honoring pioneers like Bessie Ray Geffner, whose sixty-year legal career set standards of excellence, and Virginia C. Duncombe, whose intellectual curiosity and diverse practice inspired ongoing legal education. The organization actively supports the community through pro-bono clinics, charitable initiatives, and advocacy work. By fostering connections among women in the legal field, the Nassau County Women's Bar Association creates a supportive environment where members can grow professionally, contribute meaningfully to their communities, and work collectively toward a more equitable legal system and society.
