Dr Hazel Berrard Amuah and her daughter Adwuwa Quayson were sworn in as barristers and solicitors by Ghana's Supreme Court. The historic moment marks the first time a mother and daughter have achieved this legal status in the country.
The pair completed their qualification after passing the necessary legal exams. Their achievement highlights a growing trend of women in Ghana's legal profession. Dr Amuah, who is also the CEO of Prudential Life Insurance, has long been a role model for women in business and law.
This milestone comes as Ghana continues to promote gender equality in traditionally male-dominated fields. The Supreme Court's recognition of their qualifications underscores the country's efforts to support women in legal careers. The duo's success is expected to inspire future generations of female lawyers in Ghana.
