Women Lawyers' Forum
About the Section
The Women Lawyers’ Forum is the connecting point for women in the legal profession. Through the inter-lacing of the social and the professional, the Women Lawyers’ Forum provides an opportunity for women in the law to meet, to talk and to get to know each other better, for personal and professional gain. The Forum organizes several events each year where women can engage, relax and enjoy the company of other women who share the law as a common thread.
