: FSU College of Law Library BlogObstacles to Career Advancement for Women Lawyers
By RGault
A study by the MIT Workplace Center of the career paths of women lawyers in large Massachusetts firms 2001-2005 indicates that family responsibilities still form a major obstacle to advancement. While firms may not hesitate to hire women, the time demands placed on those who seek to advance to partnership make it difficult for women who choose to have children.
