Allen Flatt Ballidis & Leslie at Orange County Women Lawyers Association Meeting
Allen Flatt Ballidis & Leslie recently participated in an Orange County Women Lawyers Association (OCWLA) meeting featuring four inspirational women, who have been trial attorneys for their entire careers – successfully balancing their professional life with their personal family life.
Topics included bias against women litigators, communication skills that make women effective in a court room, and personal stories of what it took to be recognized as a competent first chair during a trial.
We encourage fellow women attorneys to consider becoming a member of OCWLA to gain support and inspiration for both their legal careers and life’s journey!
