CLIENTS PREFER A WOMAN PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER
Even though women now represent about 50% of law school graduates, there are very few women personal injury lawyers, even though it is well-established that many accident victims prefer a woman attorney. Accident victims feel more comfortable with women lawyers because they tend to be more sensitive and empathetic.

This can be accredited to the fact in most organizations, men are more revered and hold more prestigious positions than women. Women have to swim through rivers and seas to get the amount of respect and opportunities which men don’t even have to jump over puddles for. Apart from being denied equal respect and promotion opportunities solely because of their gender, a lot of women also receive less human rights compensation at their places of work.
