It's Been Quite The Year For Business Interruption Insurance -- Just Ask This Biglaw Partner
The coronavirus has led to an explosion of work in this area of the law.
Building a career in the legal field can be both challenging and rewarding, especially if your field of interest is uncommon. In today’s episode, I interview Linda Kornfeld, partner at Blank Rome. Linda shares why she attended law school and how she landed in her practice area as an insurance recovery attorney. She also gives advice for others who are looking for their career niche, as well as her experiences with business interruption insurance over the past year, and what Biglaw can do to foster diversity.
The Jabot podcast is an offshoot of the Above the Law brand focused on the challenges women, people of color, LGBTQIA, and other diverse populations face in the legal industry. Our name comes from none other than the Notorious Ruth Bader Ginsburg and the jabot (decorative collar) she wore when delivering dissents from the bench. It’s a reminder that even when we aren’t winning, we’re still a powerful force to be reckoned with.
Happy listening!
