One thing I’m going to do is celebrate and shout out my friends — which is easy to do when your friends are as awesome as @paulaedgar.bsky.social! #LawSky @ladylawyerdiary.bsky.social 💜🙏🏾✊🏾 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Nothing like working for a company for two years to find 1. I was the lowest paid person in the dept. And 2, I was the only one in the department with the education, degrees and certifications (including the head of the dept.)

#LadyLawyerDiaries @alizashatzman.bsky.social is covering some great stuff these days that’s not getting a lot of attention with everything else going on. Her coverage of these issues deserves your read.

A great #LadyLawyerDiaries thread

Well this would be awesome and NY firms should get themselves together because we bet low tide will expose lots of inequities #LadyLawyerDiaries

Pretty stunning resignation letter #LadyLawyerDiaries

Congratulations to Justice Powell! #LadyLawyerDiaries

Come on #LawSky, @bobbisue.bsky.social is an #AppellateTwitter / #InHouseTwitter/ #LadyLawyerDiaries OG, I know we have some folks who can weigh in here

In June, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that a similar Louisiana law was unconstitutional.

@aclu.org and @heatherweaverdc.bsky.social are doing incredible work on these cases. As a Texan and someone who believes that public schools should not be endorsing any religious viewpoints, I am very grateful for them. Leave religious teaching to churches, not public schools.

Any suggestions for the NEWEST GENERAL COUNSEL in our midst? #LadyLawyerDiaries

Hey #LawSky @ladylawyerdiary.bsky.social Lawyer friends What are we using for contract/document management systems? I want to implement one ASAP, before we are inundated with new docs. It is such a nice feeling starting from zero bc I can set it all up properly! Transitioning later on sucks.

Shout out to my Chicago MUA @lorawhitticker.bsky.social for doing my makeup so beautifully almost every day this week! Lora is based in Chicago but she will travel. Highly recommend her. I was ready for every National Bar Association centennial event! @ladylawyerdiary.bsky.social #LawSky #BlackSky

Happy National Girlfriends Day! @ladylawyerdiary.bsky.social #nationalgirlfriendsday Grateful for the crew here who helped make the pandemic a little more bearable!

Noting I have faxed the New York State Board of Law Examiners asking them to respond to a series of questions for comment via email and will post the responses publicly if received.

Issue spotting: please describe a factual scenario that reflects conscious indifference or reckless disregard sufficient to support a claim for punitive damages in connection with a cause of action for personal injury or wrongful death. You have 140 characters or less to provide your answer.

Hi, I am the woman lawyer who may or may not be at the center of the story but will always wear short skirts, perfect blow-out, and (even with a Harvard JD) be characterized as a bitch or ditz (or a ditzy bitch) who defers to male colleagues when it rly counts. And I sleep with the hot clients. Obv.

It’s not that all judges are bad—but the bad ones are shielded by colleagues from #accountability. In @abovethelaw.com , why students + clerks should participate in @thelap.bsky.social nationwide transparency effort. 👇 abovethelaw.com/2025/07/crea...

Been reading the QTs and it's really glaring how a lot of (progressive!!!!!) men either don't listen to music by women or don't take women's music seriously enough to rank on their lists. It's OK to listen to music made by women, fellas! I promise you many of them go way harder then the men do.

It's also OK for men to read and enjoy books written by women with female protagonists. They legalized that in 2013.

Now do people of color … and then women of color #Intersectionality

Yes when I was on the board of @cornelluniversity.bsky.social the women profs told us exactly this..and even moreso for the minority profs: minority students flocked to them as role models to ask for mentoring and advice, taking time away from the Prof's own research #womeninscience #womeninstem

I think I was so immersed in the legal work and everyday management that it didn't occur to me that I'm a boss. Lol

Last night in NYC! I was happy to attend the Caribbean Attorneys Network (CAN) gala with @paulaedgar.bsky.social & cheer on our friend Michelle Ifill, one of the honorees. A former GC of Verizon, Michelle owns La Maison Michelle resort in Barbados. @ladylawyerdiary.bsky.social #BlackSky #LawSky

State’s Attorney Eileen O’Neill Burke: Cook County has new tools in the fight for reproductive freedom #women #choice @ladylawyerdiary.bsky.social www.chicagotribune.com/2025/07/01/o...

Just wait until the endorse fetal personhood as subject to due process (what’s left of it anyway)

Must read this thread #LadyLawyerDiaries

We love this #LadyLawyerDiaries

@ladylawyerdiary.bsky.social Well, sharing this story about the “olden days”: I was admitted to practice in the first “wave” of women lawyers. In 1982-84, a local judge routinely called women lawyers practicing before him lawyerettes. So we had baseball jackets made with that embroidered on them.

“Respectfully.” 🔥🔥🔥

I still cannot stop laughing, full body, about this #LadyLawyerDiaries

Patriarchy on full display, honey. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😅

Who we got?

I was literally thinking she’s such a nice judge. I saw a judge scream his head off for much less.

Wanna see a self-immolation in OA? #LadyLawyerDiaries [And ftr the judge handled being called “honey” by the male advocate with tremendous calm and grace]
