  • Recently, there has been a noteworthy rise of women in the global legal profession, but their number is significantly less than their male counterparts. According to a recent study, although women began to emerge as front runners in the legal profession at a global level in the 2000s, the gender balance still continues to remains skewed. Reportedly, India has the lowest representation of women in the law in comparison to various other countries at a global level. But the scenario seems to take a promising turn, as the Indian legal domain is experiencing the arrival of phenomenal legal stalwarts. Equipped with industry specific expertise, these women leaders refuse to be prejudiced based on their gender and demand to be reckoned solely on account of their leadership and competence. One such persona is Ramya Hariharan (Founder, Citadel Law Chambers), who is not only addressing newage challenges through her firm Citadel Law Chambers, but has also emerged as an inspiration to numerous other aspiring women professionals in the legal sector.

  • Top 10 Women Legal Consultants - 2022

    Earlier, the legal profession was believed to be a reserved network for men. This is very evident even from the courtroom facilities. One of the famous senior women lawyers in Kolkata once explained the plight she took in her early stages of profession due to improper sanitary facilities for women in a court room building, where some of the really feisty women lawyers used to face their male counterparts with calm and determination. With the passing of decades, things have improved far and much better. Today, courtroom facilities are improved enough to have women lawyers. There are a number of women doing really well in legal consulting profession in India. Some of them have succeeded and have reached one of the most respected positions in the country, the Supreme Court judge. But still, only a countable number of women have managed to reach the uppermost tier of law firms.

    However, things are getting better and fairer. The Economic Times has reported that the demand for women lawyers is at an all time high now, within both law firms and other companies. The demand for women lawyers have heightened especially within past fifteen years. The company’s focus on improving diversity ratio is one of the main reasons driving the demand for women lawyers, but the hard truth is that the disparity in salary exists still between the two genders. One of the famous and largest Indian firms is female dominated, constituting six women out of nine lawyers, outnumbering their male counterparts.
