In an interview with Vivia Chen, author of Bloomberg Law\u2019s popular \u201cUnfiltered\u201d column, founding partner Beth Wilkinson shares her \u201cinsider view\u201d of the sometimes fraught path of women in Big Law<\/a>, and discusses what drove her to build a different kind of culture in Wilkinson Stekloff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beth explains how leaving behind the conventional Big Law structure \u2014 and, in particular, the billable-hour model \u2014 enabled Wilkinson Stekloff to focus exclusively on high-stakes trials, create a different model of success for top-tier legal talent, and train up the next generation of superstar trial lawyers.
