2024 IS WWCDA’S 25TH ANNIVERSARY! There’s no better time than now to acknowledge collective achievements and advances of our organization. In 1999, WWCDA started with just a few visionary women. Today, we number over 3,500 women worldwide in the legal and compliance profession. Learn more! #WWCDA25YearsStrong
The Women’s White Collar Defense Association (WWCDA) has 49 chapters and 3,500+ members throughout North America, Europe, Latin America, and Asia Pacific.
Membership in these chapters consists of more than 3,000 women in the practice of white collar defense. Many of our members have previously served in government positions and in corporate roles. Notable members include former corporate General Counsels and Chief Compliance Officers, as well as former prosecutors and high ranking government officials.
WWCDA promotes the common business and professional interests of women attorneys who specialize in the representation of corporations, other organizations and individuals facing government enforcement actions (criminal, civil, regulatory, and administrative), and in internal investigations, compliance and ethics matters. WWCDA promotes diversity in the legal profession, organizes business activities to facilitate networking and business development opportunities for women in the practice, and provides educational programming focused on the defense of government enforcement actions and internal investigations, compliance and ethics issues. WWCDA also promotes the common interests of women consulting professionals who specialize in the same field and offer support services and referral opportunities to attorneys in the practice.
