Four Fellows Named New Members of the American Law Institute

May 25, 2026

The American Law Institute’s newest member class from December 2025 includes 4 Fellows from across the country. The ALI has been the leading voice in refining, clarifying, and improving the practice of law since its inception in 1923, and membership remains one of the highest honors for legal professionals.

The Fellows included are:

Jerome A. Holmes, Life Fellow

William M. Klimon, Fellow

Yoon-Ho A. Lee, Fellow

Wallace K. Lightsey, Life Fellow

ALI members are selected due to their abiding excellence in the legal profession as lawyers, judges, and law professors. Prospective constituents must be nominated by one current ALI member and approved by two additional members.
