Presented by the State Bar Communications Committee, which serves as the editorial board for Wisconsin Lawyer magazine, the Hon. Charles Dunn Author Award recognizes writing excellence in the publication. The award was named in honor of the Wisconsin Supreme Court’s first chief justice.

The 2022 Charles Dunn Award goes to Kelsey Mullins, author of “Highlighting a Hidden Legal Issue: Transnational Marriage Abandonment,” 95 Wis. Law. 22-27 (November 2022). Mullins, U.W. 2021, practices law with End Domestic Abuse Wisconsin in Madison. She focuses on legal issues affecting survivors of domestic violence, in particular immigrant survivors and survivors of human trafficking.

Our state’s immigrant and refugee communities face unique legal challenges. This article’s explanation of transnational marriage abandonment highlighted an issue all Wisconsin lawyers should be aware of and gave us some practical tips on how to use legal strategies to empower survivors.
