I spend a lot of time talking about what the legal profession and women lawyers need to do to recruit and retain talented women lawyers (see: just about every other column I’ve written ), and I stand by all of that. But keeping women in the profession is a three-legged table, and I’ve all but ignored one of those legs: the men who are in relationships with these talented women that firms are trying so hard to keep.
That’s a crucially important leg, because women who have unsupportive partners will find it next to impossible to stay in the game, let alone make it to the top.
