Before Memmo my notes were scattered across PDFs. Now a workspace pulls everything into one place — I see exactly what's still left to study.
At an ABA Women in Criminal Justice Task Force listening session in 2019, Federal Defender Andrea George likened practicing criminal law as a woman to "playing football in a dress." Women in Criminal Law aims to describe persistent and pernicious barriers to gender equity for criminal lawyers, unpack best practices, and provide exciting examples of trailblazers who have operationalized some systemic changes. Anyone who cares about a more just criminal legal system will want to read this book. But anyone who has experienced or witnessed unequal treatment or outcomes based on gender or any personal characteristics will relate to the universality of themes presented and be inspired by the stories of perseverance.
Building on the success of ABA Resolution 501: Ten Steps to Achieve Gender Equity in the Criminal Legal Profession, which was adopted unanimously by the ABA House of Delegates in 2023, the book builds on the editor's role as Reporter of the ABA Criminal Justice Section Women in Criminal Justice Task Force (2019-2023) and Co-Chair of the ABA Criminal Justice Section Women in Criminal Justice Committee (2022-2024). Chapter contributors and authors include diverse criminal lawyers and judges from around the United States who are actively pursuing justice for communities and clients while simultaneously managing their personal lives. The book describes challenges in the courtroom and behind the scenes, including being disrespected by colleagues, judges, clients, and court staff. Contributors' lived experiences as women with other diverse identities lead to rich insights about what is wrong and how to get it right.
The book presents the most recent research regarding gender equity in the legal profession; provides the perspectives of prosecutors, public defenders, and other women criminal lawyers; describes each of the Ten Principles, sharing related success stories that can serve as models and pitfalls; highlights the wisdom of well-respected judges; explains how women and people who are non-binary can advocate for themselves; and provides all the published work related to the Task Force.
Women in Criminal Law will alert future and current law students to gender-related challenges and creative solutions proposed by criminal justice leaders, serve as a desk reference for criminal and other legal employers on how to approach gender inclusivity, and promote solidarity among criminal lawyers.

Memmo's summaries are gold before exams. I don't have to re-read 800 pages two weeks before — just the important parts.
The AI chat has saved me the night before an exam more than once. I just keep asking until I get it — no waiting on a study group to reply.
The quizzes hit exactly what I need to know. Memmo tracks what I get stuck on — so I only practice what's worth it.
Flashcards with spaced repetition are magic. Memmo knows when I'm about to forget something and brings it back.
The AI podcasts are my favorite. I listen on my way to school and get a recap without sitting at a computer.
