Baron & Budd Named One of the Top Law Firms for Female Attorneys

The national law firm of Baron & Budd is pleased to announce it was
ranked as one of the best law firms for female attorneys. Law360’s 2019
Glass Ceiling report looks at law firms based on their attorney head
count and ranks them by their percentage of female partners and
nonpartners. Law360 says it lists the 70 firms “who are leading the pack
in representing women at all levels.”

Law360’s research indicates that women represent only 36.3% of attorneys
at firms and women represent only 24.8% of partners, which suggests
fewer women are rising through the ranks. Of the 25 shareholders at
Baron & Budd, nearly one third are women. The firm currently has 58
attorneys that are not shareholders. Of those attorneys, 25 are women.

“While we are very proud to make this list, we know there is always room
for improvement and we hope to keep climbing up the rankings by
continuing to hire extremely talented and qualified women to represent
our firm,” said Baron and Budd president and managing shareholder,
Russell Budd. “We hope to continue to be an example of gender diversity
in this industry and let women know that they have equal access to the
path of success.”
