Jackson Lewis is excited to be named a 2024 Tipping the Scales firm for achieving at least 50 percent women in our 2024 new partner class. This is the fifth consecutive time the firm has won the award since its inception in 2019.
Congratulations to our eighty-two 2024 #TippingtheScales firms! According to our 2024 #NewPartnerReport - released to members today - these law firms had 50% or more women in their 2024 new partner class! The Report revealed that 41.6 percent of U.S.-based new partners from 196 major law firms in 2024 were women, representing a decrease of 2.1% from last year’s figure of 43.7%. “While it's encouraging to see more firms achieving gender parity in their partner classes, the overall decline in women's representation is a stark reminder that progress isn't inevitable - it requires intentional action. Law firms must double down on creating equitable systems for #advancement and #retention. The success of our Alliance members shows that sustainable progress is possible when firms make #diversity and #flexibility core business priorities." - Manar Morales President & CEO Diversity & Flexibility Alliance Learn more: https://loom.ly/zyu7xtI #genderparity
