Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg
Firms don’t seem to be moving that fast to be flexible. [Men and women] should get together with each other and decide ‘what we want’ [and] make it known and illustrate by example that you can have a home life and a work life.
— Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, offering words of disapproval for Biglaw firms that haven’t become more accommodating for lawyers who want a “balanced life,” during a conversation with former U.S. solicitor general Theodore Olson before the D.C. chapter of the Association of Corporate Counsel.
