Mission Statement

The Coalition of Women's Initiatives in Law's mission is to benefit its member firms and companies, and its individual in-house counsel members by providing positive avenues of communication, collaboration and guidance that help members to 1) enhance the recruitment, retention and promotion of women lawyers and 2) support the building, implementation and continued relevancy of women's initiatives in law firms and companies. 

With these goals in mind, the Coalition works collectively to:

  • Provide a forum for sharing with each other the positive efforts and successes of women's initiatives;
  • Serve as a resource for leaders and members of women's initiatives within each member firm and company;
  • Invite speakers and individuals from inside and outside the legal community to provide training and perspectives on how to be a successful lawyer in today's business environment. 

The Coalition is a vital initiative and currently the only one of its kind in the nation. Learn more about becoming a memberbecoming a sponsor or our Antitrust Policy today.
