Infobit: Since
1985, law schools have been graduating classes of new lawyers that are 40% or
more female. Yet in 1996, only 14.2% of law firm partners were women, and in
2005, only 17.2% were women. (Note: this figure is for all partners; the number
of equity partners is lower.) Source: Catalyst.
At this rate of increase, women should make up half of law firm partners by
the year 2115.
