Womble Carlyle Sandridge & Rice’s newly elected chairwoman, Betty Temple, represents several firsts for the firm. Temple, who works in Atlanta and Greenville, S.C., is the first Womble head from outside its Winston-Salem, N.C., headquarters.

He is also the chairman of Lex Mundi, an international association of law firms to which Womble belongs. Temple is the firm’s vice chairwoman and a member of its management and executive committees.
