Legal Referral Network
The AAUW Legal Advocacy Fund does not provide legal advice, but it does offer referrals through a network of legal experts. Network partners provide initial consultations to individuals considering or conducting sex discrimination litigation and can help them by:
- Identifying whether they have a claim for sex discrimination
- Locating research reports, statistics, and other resources
- Gauging the strength of their suit and pinpointing legal strategies
- Determining alternatives available to fight the sex discrimination
- Assessing the ramifications and consequences of their options
Referrals to Network participants are provided at no charge and the 300 Network members are encouraged to provide a consultation at a reduced fee or pro bono rate.
For Help: Please contact laf@aauw.org for a legal referral relating to sex discrimination in the workplace.
To Provide Help: Attorneys and experts who have an interest in becoming part of the Network can download and complete the appropriate questionnaire below. Completed questionnaires can be e-mailed to laf@aauw.org.
