Our Dear LiL Blog is made up of a wide variety of posts and responses to user-submitted questions with the intention of providing insightful guidance to women in the legal community. Some of these posts are written by our LiL Advisors and LiL Allies, but a lot of them come from our friends within (and outside of) the legal community. We believe that diversity in perspective is one of the best parts of the Dear LiL Blog and provides the upmost value to our readers.

In October 2020, we posted our first LiL Panel Discussion featuring LiL co-founder Kim Jakeman, guests Cynthia B. Kuehl of @lernerslawyers and Sheila E. Caston, QC of McKercher LLP, and LiL Advisors Lindsay Johnston and Mandeep Gill of @harpergreylaw. The discussion centered around the sexual harassment of women in the legal profession, specifically, at the hands of clients. Although a sensitive and uncomfortable topic, it is important we continue to have these conversations. As Kim states, “only by sharing our past experiences can we hope to protect future generations of women in law from experiencing similar types of harassment.” Read the original post by following the link in our bio.
