Recent studies by the Washington and New York state bar associations, the National Association of Women Lawyer, US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, Catalyst, Minority Corporate Counsel Association, and others, confirm that women lawyers continue to face obstacles to success in the legal profession – and that employers who are committed to women’s professional success can remove those barriers.
