Michael Best is pleased to announce its inclusion in Women Inc. magazine’s list of Top 100 Law Firms for Women. The inaugural feature celebrates female representation and leadership in the legal industry and is featured in the September issue of Women Inc. Magazine.
The top 100 firms were selected based on survey data and criteria including, prior recognition, recruitment/community outreach, firm prominence with input from editorial staff that has spent many years covering the legal industry.
“We’re thrilled to be included in this impressive list of law firms,” said Kelly Fortier, Chair of Michael Best’s Women’s Development Group. “We understand there is not a standard one-size-fits-all approach, and we pride ourselves on creating a dynamic culture focused on women mentoring, flexible schedules, and women-focused professional development initiatives.”
Headlining the issue will be a cover story with philanthropist and former general manager at Microsoft, Melinda Gates, who recently published her inspirational book, The Moment of Lift: How Empowering Women Changes the World.
