The Lane County Chapter created the Chief Justice Martha Walters Award in 2019 to recognize Lane County attorneys who have demonstrated leadership in the pursuit of equal justice for all. Recipients of this award have transformed the law through advocacy and mentoring that serves to create or encourage equal opportunities for individuals facing obstacles to achievement. It is named after the first woman Chief Justice of the Oregon Supreme Court.
