Her Justice Names Next Executive Director, Alexia Korberg

We’re thrilled to announce that Her Justice has named Alexia Korberg as its new Executive Director effective September 9^th, 2024.

Korberg (they/them) is leaving the preeminent law firm of Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison, where they served as a partner in the Litigation Department and as Deputy Chair of the M&A Litigation Practice Group. In addition to their robust commercial disputes and trial practice, Alexia has developed a nationally-recognized constitutional impact litigation practice and has litigated well over a dozen important civil and human rights cases in courts across the country, including three cases at the Supreme Court. Alexia represented LGBTQ+ rights pioneer Edie Windsor in the first Supreme Court case establishing a constitutional right to same-sex marriage; their longtime client, Mississippi’s last abortion provider, in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization; and most recently trans youth challenging Idaho’s criminal ban on gender affirming care.

Executive Director Amy Barasch shares, “Alexia is a bold and exciting choice for the leadership of Her Justice. Their clear strategic vision for the potential of pro bono at this key inflection point in our organization’s history and in the legal profession at large, as well as their commitment to gender justice and sophisticated understanding of how to partner across communities, make Alexia the right person to lead Her Justice into its future. I am certain that the outstanding Her Justice team will thrive under Alexia’s leadership, and I look forward to watching this exciting next chapter for this incredible organization.”

Alexia, we are thrilled to have you aboard — here’s to Her Justice’s next chapter!
