Women & Minorities in the Law

Numerous studies indicate that there are more women and minorities entering law school and going on to practice law. On The Landy Law Letter, host John L. Torvi, from the Herbert H. Landy Insurance Agency of Needham, Massachusetts welcomes Attorney Catherine M. Stanton from the law firm, Pasternack Tilker Ziegler Walsh Stanton & Romano, LLP, to take a look at the current dynamics of women and minorities in the law. Cathy talks about the current conditions for women and minorities entering into a law practice, the obstacles for minorities or women in advancing to the higher echelons of the profession and what law schools and the legal profession are doing to create greater opportunities for minorities and women lawyers.
