Gibbons P.C. has once again earned a place on the annual Working Mother and Flex-Time Lawyers list of the “50 Best Law Firms for Women.” Gibbons is one of only seven firms to be named to this list in each year it has been published since 2007.

Working Mother and Flex-Time Lawyers created the 50 Best Law Firms for Women initiative to celebrate the firms that are most successful in retaining and promoting women lawyers. The full list of law firms can be viewed here and is also featured in the magazine’s August/September issue.

Of Gibbons, the publication notes, “The Gibbons Leadership Academy helps female attorneys… set goals, forge networks, and expand their clientele. That’s vital, especially since so many of them hold key roles here: Women represent 30% of all executive committee members and chair 33% of departments.”
