Anne Rudman, a criminal defense solo practitioner, is the new chair of the board of Lawyers Without Borders, a group of volunteer lawyers who often travel to developing countries to provide access to justice initiatives and to train lawyers in those countries on legal concepts and human rights.

Each trip includes volunteer teams of attorneys and judges who will train dozens of lawyers, judges and magistrates in foreign countries. Since 2005, about 300 lawyers and judges have gone to more than a dozen developing countries as part of the program. When LWOB leaves a country, it assesses the impact of the training and what can be improved to help future visits.
