Fragomen was recognized once again for being a leader in advancing gender equity in the U.S., in Law360’s 2018 Glass Ceiling Report. The firm was ranked #1 on this year’s lists of best law firms (with 300-599 attorneys) for female attorneys and female partners.
While women make up just over 35 percent of all attorneys surveyed, more than 64 percent of the attorneys at Fragomen are women and more than 51 percent of the partners at Fragomen are women.
Fragomen also topped Law360’s 2018 “Ceiling Smashers” ranking of firms with 300-599 attorneys. This ranking focuses solely on the ratio of female equity partners to male equity partners. Forty percent of Fragomen’s equity partners are female—double the industry average, according to the report.
For this report, Law360 surveyed more than 300 U.S. firms, or vereins with a U.S. component, about their overall and female headcount numbers as of Dec. 31, 2017. Firms had to have at least 20 U.S.-based attorneys to participate. Law360 then grouped firms based on U.S. attorney headcount in order to compare them with similarly sized firms. To be eligible for the list, firms had to report above-average representation of females in their (1) attorney population, (2) non-partner population, (3) total partner population, and (4) equity partner population.
Diversity is critical to Fragomen’s structure and is an important part of the firm’s culture. Learn more about Fragomen values and career opportunities here.
