Access to Legal Education. Redefining the Future of the Legal Profession.

Law school wasn’t designed with many of us in mind—but we’re changing that. LawyHer is a nonprofit dedicated to making legal education more accessible, ensuring that women of color don’t just get into law school but thrive once they’re there.

Through initiatives like:
🔹 LawyHer Loading Fellows – Providing LSAT prep, mentorship, and direct application support to aspiring law students.
🔹 LSAT Empowerment Initiative – Partnering with top LSAT prep companies to provide over 100 LSAT prep scholarships to remove financial barriers for future lawyers.
🔹 Personal Statement Workshops – Helping applicants craft compelling narratives to strengthen their applications.

We’re breaking down barriers, opening doors, and equipping the next generation of LawyHers with the tools to succeed.

Founded by Hadiyah Cummings, a Yale Law graduate and passionate advocate for diversity in law, LawyHer has grown into a thriving community of aspiring and current lawyers who are supporting, uplifting, and mentoring the next generation.

The future of law doesn’t look like the past—and we’re making sure of it.

📩 Let’s connect. Whether you’re a pre-law student, a lawyer looking to give back, or an organization invested in equity in legal education, we’d love to collaborate.
