AALAM proudly congratulates Bethany Li for being named one of the National Asian Pacific American Bar Association's (NAPABA) 2018 Best Lawyers Under 40 award winners.
Each November, NAPABA recognizes talented individuals in the Asian Pacific American legal community who have achieved prominence and distinction in their respective fields — be it the practice of law, academia, business, civic and charitable affairs, the judiciary, or politics — and who have demonstrated a strong commitment to Asian Pacific American civic or community affairs.
In June, AALAM enthusiastically nominated and supported AALAM member, Bethany Li, for the NAPABA’s “Best Under 40” Award. Bethany currently serves as director of the Asian Outreach Unit (AOU) at Greater Boston Legal Services (GBLS). GBLS’s mission is to provide free civil legal aid to help individuals and families achieve justice and meet basic needs such as food, security, safety and adequate shelter. Bethany is an accomplished attorney and a tireless advocate for the underserved in the Asian American community. She has dedicated her life to public service, working to support low-income and Asian immigrant communities while partnering with grassroots organizations to train future generations of public interest attorneys. AALAM is excited that Bethany has received this well-deserved recognition and honor.
