Legal Services of Greater Miami has received a $1 million gift from commercial real estate broker Edie Laquer to endow the nonprofit organization’s first attorney chair focused on women and children’s rights.

The donation established the Edie Laquer Foundation women and children’s rights endowed attorney chair. Rebecca Schram of the legal services group has been named to the post. The gift will ensure “our most vulnerable neighbors — women and children — will always have an attorney dedicated to providing them with representation in our civil justice system,” the nonprofit said in a news release.
