A diverse group of female partners discuss their journey from junior to senior partnership at their law firms. They will delve into the nuances of their more senior roles, including barriers they’ve faced as both women and underrepresented attorneys and the contributions and responsibilities inherent in their roles. They will also offer guidance for associates and more junior partners aspiring to rise through the ranks at their own firms.

Topics

  • Explaining the difference between various partnership levels, including equity and non-equity partner
  • Discussing the path to securing more senior roles within a law firm
  • Explaining the contributions and responsibilities of being a senior partner at a law firm
  • Discussing how gender bias still affects women trying to rise through the ranks at a law firm
  • Discussing barriers faced by underrepresented attorneys in securing more senior roles within a law firm
  • Guidance on how to move beyond just practicing law to building a book of business

Section Chair
