The article focuses on the findings of the 2021 Australian Financial Review Law Partnership survey, which indicates that mid-tier law firms are driving change in regard to gender equity in senior positions. Mid-tier law firms in 2021 outpaced the top-tier firms.
The Law Partnership Survey found that "Four of the five firms with at least 40 per cent female partners are mid-tiers: Lander & Rogers (45 per cent), Cooper Grace Ward (41 per cent), Moray & Agnew (40 per cent) and Russell Kennedy Lawyers (40 per cent)."
Russell Kennedy is dedicated to driving gender equity change, which is evidenced by being selected as an Employer of Choice for Gender Equality by the Workplace Gender Equality Agency for the last four years.
