“Leslie is a trailblazer and leads by example. Leslie has an incredible career, filled with remarkable cases and clients, and yet, her door is always open to others. Leslie will be a great asset for ISBA. As President, Leslie will maintain a watchful eye on trends and challenges in the legal industry, which will also allow her to continue to be a strong negotiator and advocate for her clients,” said Managing Partner David Day.
Henderzahs is ISBA’s fifth female president. As CCHA’s first female partner, Henderzahs has been instrumental in developing younger CCHA attorneys, and is proud that nearly half of CCHA’s attorneys are women. As ISBA President, Henderzahs looks forward to leading a celebration of the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment, which prohibited the states and federal government from denying women the right to vote. Henderzahs took time recently to share her thoughts about her upcoming year at ISBA. Read Henderzahs' interview here with The Indiana Lawyer.
