Description

This book examines the challenges women face as they struggle to succeed in law firms. It addresses all aspects of law firm life, including firm management, the assignment process, billable hour demands, business generation, compensation, mentoring, attrition, and work or family issues. It also recommends changes, describing concrete actions law firms can implement to enable women to take their rightful place as equals in the legal profession. The book is based on the author's interviews with hundreds of women lawyers and law firm managers from across the country, and also draws on a wide range of research across multiple disciplines.
