What is The Equity Project?
Women are significantly underrepresented at the senior-most ranks of law firms and consistently earn less than their male peers.
The Equity Project is a ground-breaking initiative designed to close the gender gap in law by providing an economic incentive for change through a $50 million capital pool earmarked for financing commercial litigation and arbitration matters led by women.
