Ron: Would you counsel women law students toward or away from BigLaw?
Debra: In my opinion, as I said in Post 1, training, opportunity, career development and networking are far better in BigLaw, even with all its shortcomings. Women, like men, need it; it needs us. Like every other business institution, law firms need and benefit from women among their leaders.
