Also Above the Law’s great Blog .. The Pink Ghetto is back detailing sexist behaviour at law firms.When you read some of these comments……., well, words fail me.

At a second firm, I was informed that the file clerk would be leaving due to the managing partner’s sexual advances on her — a week into the job. I finally found a firm where I do not feel “different” because I’m a woman. But then again, I’m one of seven female attorneys in a nine-attorney firm!
