  AALAM is delighted to invite you to join us on Thursday, June 12, 2025 for AALAM’s 2025 Annual Banquet, beginning with a cocktail hour at 5:30 pm followed by dinner promptly starting at 6:30 pm at China Pearl located at 9 Tyler Street, Boston.

  We are excited to be returning to Boston’s Chinatown for a traditional 10 course Chinese banquet dinner and look forward to celebrating with you the legacy and accomplishments of the Asian American and Pacific Islander (“AAPI”) legal community in Massachusetts.

  AALAM has a proud 40+ year history of commitment and service to the AAPI and legal communities. We are immensely proud of our many members and allies who dedicate countless hours to serve as leaders and mentors for all practitioners. We are especially honored to recognize this year’s award recipients for their professional achievements, integrity and dedicated service. AALAM will be presenting the 2025 AALAM Founders Award to Chinh Pham of Greenberg Traurig, the 2025 AALAM Community Service Award to Peggy Ho of Commonwealth Financial, and the 2025 AALAM Ally of the Year Award to Ropes & Gray LLP. We will also recognize the law student recipient of the 28th Annual AALAM/ Dow Fund Scholarship Award. 

  We hope that you will join us for this evening of celebration, which will also include for the first time an official afterparty immediately following the dinner, complete with music, karaoke and other entertainment! Proceeds from AALAM’s 2025 Annual Banquet will help fund AALAM’s inclusive programming and initiatives throughout the year, including networking and professional development opportunities, charitable donations and sponsorships for community and legal organizations, and scholarships for law students aspiring to enter public service. We would very much welcome your support this year, now more than ever.

  We deeply appreciate your continued support of AALAM’s 2025 Annual Banquet and our continuing efforts to build an even greater and more inclusive legal community in Massachusetts.
