Abstract
Aquest treball analitza la vida i la carrera de Maria Soteras i Maurí, la primera
dona llicenciada en Dret a la Universitat de Barcelona i la primera dona advocada
col·legiada al Col·legi d'Advocats de Barcelona. Malgrat les restriccions imposades
pel règim franquista, Soteras va lluitar per la igualtat de gènere i els drets humans,
destacant-se com a defensora de la justícia. La seva trajectòria professional durant el
franquisme i l'exili a Mèxic reflecteixen la seva resiliència i compromís amb les seves
conviccions. Les seves contribucions han estat reconegudes com a fonamentals en
la lluita per la igualtat i la justícia. A través d'aquesta recerca, es posa de manifest la
importància de la seva figura com a referent per a les futures generacions i com a
exemple de superació en un context de discriminació i repressió. Maria Soteras i Maurí
representa un llegat inspirador que perdura en la memòria col·lectiva com a defensora
dels drets i la dignitat de les persones.
