Women’s increasing presence in corporate legal affairs

Aquaxis Law Office, MSI's member firm in Japan, was recently featured in Nikkei Shimbun's article "Women’s Increasing Presence in Corporate Legal Affairs." The article discusses the increasing number of female lawyers in Asia, their leadership positions, and their contributions to complex legal matters.

Introduction

Women lawyers are becoming increasingly important in corporate legal affairs. Medium-sized law firms with a large number of women are increasing their presence, and large firms are also rushing to increase the ratio of women. There is also a growing trend among foreign clients to avoid male-only teams of lawyers. The gender gap in income has been nearly eliminated for in-house corporate lawyers. There are those who say, “The diversity of human resources enhances the quality of legal advice and judgment.”
