Championing the Rule of Law, in Principle and Practice

In May 2025, the Joint Minority Mentorship Program (JMMP) hosted a special Rule of Law Panel at the Foster Garvey Seattle office.

The evening was filled with networking, powerful discussions and stories of courage from our speakers. Panelists shared honest, personal reflections on what it means to stand up for the rule of law when it is tested, and when the systems we work within aren’t aligned with the values that brought us into this profession.

A big thank you to our speakers, attendees, sponsors and everyone who helped make the evening a success.

Moderator: Judge Rania Rampersad

Panelists: Erika Evans, Darrah Hinton, Sunitha Anjilvel, Kimberly Ambrose, and Sandra Schilling

Sponsor: Washington State Bar Association and Foster Garvey’s Opportunity and Progress Council
