Lawyers
Legal Aid DC honored litigation partner Karen Dunn with its 2025 Servant of Justice Award, which recognizes lawyers who have dedicated their careers to public service, the protection of underserved communities and the defense of moral and ethical standards under the law. Karen received the award at the Legal Aid DC’s annual awards dinner on April 29.
The recognition highlights Karen’s 2016 victory for budget autonomy and home rule for the District of Columbia, in which the DC Superior Court affirmed the right of District government to control the city’s budget, paving the way for critical programs that support Legal Aid’s client community, including Access to Justice funding.
