SAN FRANCISCO — The Recorder has named 60 California lawyers as its 2015 Women Leaders in Tech Law. Honorees are selected by Recorder editors based on their recent achievements as litigators, dealmakers, advisors and strategists in the tech industry, as well as in leadership roles at their organizations or in the legal community.

From data security and IP strategy to mega-mergers and workplace policies, these lawyers are handling—and often solving—the most crucial problems tech companies face. They include 20 women from in-house legal teams, 37 women at law firms, as well as an academic and two federal prosecutors who focus on computer crime.
