On March 13, I participated in a Women's Roundtable discussion for a supplement for The Legal Intelligencer which will be published in April 2012. The discussion included a variety of topics including rainmaking, mentoring, raising children while practicing law, and also included solutions to many problems women face in the legal profession.
I believe that having a mentor can assist many women in advancing in the legal field. After being one of 12 female attorneys selected in Philadelphia for this discussion, I found myself asking why, at this stage of my career, do I see so few women advancing, especially in the plaintiffs' field. Over 50% of my graduating class were women - very intelligent and gifted women - where are these women now, why did they leave the profession, and what can we do to keep them in it - all good questions for us to ponder.
The roundtable discussion focused more on solutions. Let's try to continue this discussion.
