WILEF East

Description of Program: The program will explore various paths to success for women lawyers, while pointing out the common elements of a successful career. This is an important program for associates and young lawyers. The reality is that most associates, male and female, do not become partners at their firms (whether by choice or not), and, therefore there is great benefit to understanding the many different ways to optimize their careers. Law firms too benefit when their alums achieve excellence in other settings.
