Congratulations to NAMWOLF Law Firm Member Burris Law, PLLC! #legalsupplierdiversity
Burris Law is excited to announce that Burris Law has been named a “Best Women-Led Law Firm” by Michigan Lawyers Weekly! This recognition celebrates the incredible contributions of female-led firms across Michigan and the ways they empower women attorneys to thrive professionally. As a woman-owned firm, we take great pride in breaking barriers and championing diversity in the traditionally male-dominated field of intellectual property law. A special congratulations to our founder and owner, Kelly Burris, whose leadership has been instrumental in creating a firm where innovation, inclusion, and excellence come together. Kelly’s commitment to mentoring women in both law and STEM, coupled with her dedication to uplifting underrepresented voices, is at the heart of everything we do. We’re honored to be part of such a dynamic legal community and look forward to continuing our mission to support innovation and diversity for years to come. #WomenInLaw #WomenInLeadership #Detroit #Michigan #IPLaw
