What's Next! Featuring Judge Mablean Ephriam
Mablean Ephriam was born to Robert and Mable Ephriam in Hazlehurst, Mississippi. She is no stranger to achievement. Through hard, consistent and dedicated work, she strives to perform and do her God-given best. Twenty-five years ago, Judge Ephriam was admitted to the California Bar and in 1992 she was admitted to the United States Supreme Court. Judge Ephriam became a Certified Law Clerk and performed duties that were second nature to her — research, writing and arguing criminal misdemeanor appeals.
Taking a break from school, she became a young wife and mother of three. She then decided it was time to enter law school. She enrolled in the night program at Whittier College School of law in Los Angeles earning her Juris Doctor Degree in 1978.
Because she is such an unselfish, people-conscientious woman, who is well respected by colleagues and well known for her contributions, she has earned such awards as: 1997 Alumni of the Year-Whittier College; 1996 Zephyr Ramsey Award-Harriet Buhai [bew-high] Center of Family Law; 1996 Spencer Brandeis Award from the Family Law Section-Los Angeles Bar Association (she was the youngest recipient and first Black woman). If that is not enough, Judge Ephriam has volunteered in numerous organizations and worked many jobs, such as: Hearing Examiner-City of L.A. Civil Service Commission; Board of Directors-Union Rescue Mission (first black woman); Member of American Bar Association and National Bar Association; and President of Black Women Lawyers Association of Los Angeles.
In October of 1998, Twentieth Television selected this experienced, distinguished law practitioner and mediator to sit as Judge on the newly, revised half hour syndicated show “Divorce Court”, where there is no script, nor actors, just real cases and real litigants with Judge Ephriam rendering legally-binding decisions. This all came about by God’s divine will. Judge Mablean did not seek the position.
After ending her seven season run on Divorce Court (1999-2006), Judge Ephriam is a much sought after public speaker for Women’s Conferences, Churches, Community and Civic Organizations, Colleges and Schools, Dealing with Relationship Issues and motivating others to pursue their dreams.
Additionally, she is working on the mission of her nonprofit foundation, The Mablean Ephriam Foundation, to build stronger families, educate minds, increase economic power among disadvantaged and lower economic persons and thus create better communities. This hard-working woman is an entrepreneur. She is the owner of Mablean’s Limousine Services; co-owner of Jubilane Guest House, a Bed & Breakfast in Johannesburg, South Africa; and founder of an awards program, Honoring Unsung Fathers.
