As we celebrate International Women's Day, we at O'Brien Solicitors would like to recognise the incredible contributions of women to the legal profession and beyond.

In recent years, the legal field has made substantial advances towards gender equality. However, women in the legal profession continue to face barriers to advancement, such as unconscious bias, lack of mentorship and sponsorship, and limited opportunities for career development.

A gender-equal future in the legal field involves women having equal and fair opportunities and being represented proportionately at all levels of the profession, including leadership positions.

We are proud to have many talented women working within our firm, and we value the unique perspectives and experiences they bring to our team. Our female lawyers inspire us every day with their dedication, passion, and hard work.

As we celebrate International Women's Day, we want to encourage everyone to push for progress. We also want to remind everyone that it is essential to continue supporting and uplifting women, not just on this day but every day.

Happy International Women's Day!
