Biography:
Laura L. Dunn, J.D., is a nationally-recognized victims’ rights attorney and social entrepreneur who has been featured in Forbes, Buzzfeed, National Law Journal, and many more.  Dunn is the Founding Partner of the L.L. Dunn Law Firm, as well as a published legal scholar, adjunct at Maryland Law, liaison to the American Law Institute’s Model Penal Code on Sexual Assault and  Student Sexual Misconduct Project, and appointed member to the ABA’s  Commission on Domestic & Sexual Violence (2016-2019) and the ABA's Criminal Justice Section Task Force on College Due Process and Victim Protection (2017). 

While a student at Maryland Law, Dunn contributed to Obama-era Title IX guidance from the U.S. Department of Education and served on its 2014 VAWA rule-making committee to develop implementing regulations for the Clery Act's amendments pursuant to Section 304 of the 2013 Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act ("VAWA"). For her national advocacy, Dunn has been publicly recognized by Vice President Joe Biden and former Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy on the Senate floor.  Upon graduation, she founded the national nonprofit, SurvJustice, which won the 2017 AAUW Eleanor Roosevelt Fund Award.  Dunn has gone on to receive several awards and recognitions including the 2015 Echoing Green Global Fellowship, the 2016 Benjamin Cardin Public Service Award, the 2017 Special Courage Award from the U.S. Department of Justice's Office for Victims of Crime, and a 2018 TED Fellowship, among other recognitions.

Dunn is also an accomplished litigator, who helped win the first-ever recognition of a federal victim-advocate privilege.  She also serves an expert witness and consultant on high profile campus cases, such as the Lauren McCluskey and Jerry Sandusky cases.  As a Title IX and Clery Act expert, Dunn has trained countless campus community members, advocates and attorneys through prominent institutions and organizations, such as the Federal Bar Association, the National Association of Women Judges, the College Republican National Committee, the Democratic Attorneys General Association, the University of Chicago’s Institute of Politics, Harvard Law, Stanford University, the Wisconsin Department of Justice, the Texas Municipal Police Association, the Arkansas Bar Association, and many more.
