InspiraLAw 2020: Top 60 Women in the Iberian Legal sector
Despite the unusual nature of this year, Iberian Lawyer did not want to fail to recognise, at least from these pages, the important work carried out by top women lawyers in the Iberian Peninsula, whether from law firms, as companies ́ in-house staff or, for the first time, from relevant associations or organisations. Our list presents, in this 2020 edition, 60 women from Spain and Portugal whose work inspires others while promoting the role of women in the legal sector and in our society in general. This year, moreover, we are exceptionally increasing the number to 60. Here is our special tribute to them, InspiraLAw
With this recognition, Iberian Lawyer aims not only to highlight women who have an excellent professional career and outstanding expertise in their respective practice areas but also, and above all, their support and encouragement to other women through mentoring or association work, values that have been very important in this edition. Women who one day graduated in Law and who now – whether from a firm, a company or an association – help to build a more just world by their example and pave the way for new generations of young lawyers, inspiring them with their good work.
This year, we have increased the number of selected women to 60, including some familiar faces but also new ones who deserve to be among the most outstanding for their excellent work in the promotion of women in the legal sector and society in general.
