Baker Botts' Women In Action strives to address issues facing all women, both cis and transgender, in the global workforce and specifically within the legal industry. Ensuring that all women have access to both fulfilling careers and opportunities for leadership is central to our efforts as we work to close the gender gaps that are prevalent in the legal profession.
Within our own walls, we have made concerted efforts to create an environment that cultivates strong women leaders and inspires them to do great work.
Our efforts to recruit, retain, and promote diverse women and staff at all levels go beyond our firm and extend to the clients with whom we work and serve.
