Boston law firm Casner & Edwards announces that partner Sharon C. Lincoln has been named to the Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly 2020 “Top Women of Law” list. This highly coveted honor celebrates the exceptional accomplishments of women attorneys as leaders, educators, and mentors, and for their pro bono, social justice, advocacy, and business efforts. Lincoln and fellow award recipients will be honored at a virtual reception on November 17, 2020.
Lincoln joins Anita S. Lichtblau, Lynne F. Riley, and Renee Inomata who have received this honor in previous years, recognizing the strong cohort of women attorneys at Casner that is such an asset to the firm.
