The Pennsylvania Bar Association's Commission on Women in the Profession released its annual report card measuring the participation of women in the legal profession. According to US Census Data, about 51% of Pennslyvania residents are women. Based on a survey of 100 largest law firms in PA, women consititute 32% of all lawyers; 21% of partners; 47% of associates on the partnership track; and 68% of part-timers.
What do these numbers mean? No matter how many women lawyers show up for work this year, the real news remains that the Pennsylvania Bar Association's Commission on Women finds it worthwhile to count us.
