The panel is moderated by the Chief Judge, United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, Hon. Colleen McMahon. Attorney Barcroft and her fellow panelists will explore the national effects of the #MeToo movement on the country’s laws, how the movement has highlighted the weaknesses in prior legislation, and how attorneys can help to further the impact of the movement. Additionally, the panelists will discuss how to achieve gender equality within the legal profession, which is male-dominated in both partner-level positions and in monetary earnings.
