Women of WLG (WOW)

World Law Group would not be what it is today without the many women we have leading and participating in the network, and the women who paved the way before them. Women of World Law Group, or WOW for short, is a forum for women in the network to come together both virtually and in person to network, celebrate successes, and problem-solve challenges. It's a place for women to discuss issues such as leadership and gender equity, and for younger females in the legal industry to find mentorship from other women. This forum is for female lawyers and professionals alike.

The forum hosts virtual meetings and speed networking sessions open to all women in the network, and our female Key Contact Partners meet up in person at our summits.

If you're attending an industry event not hosted by WLG and would like to meet up with other women in the network, reach out to Hanna Shea to help facilitate this.
