The legal fraternity: Our part to play
By Dani Salinger|25 April 2021
This is a very stale conversation. So stale, so tiresome: 2021, westernised and democratised, and still talking about women’s diminishment vis-a-vis sexual harassment and other workplace practices that are laced with antiquated power structures. What can we, the legal fraternity do in such a scenario, asks Dani Salinger.
The industry imbued with intricate knowledge of laws and complaint systems, yet where one in three have experienced sexual harassment at the hands of colleagues, counsel, or more recently, and infamously, judges.
Whilst lawyers provide legal nous and advocate for the benefit of others, we have dramatically failed our own. In doing so, and in the absence of change, we have curtailed the opportunity to provide the type of counsel that is presently needed without screaming hypocrisy from the rooftops.
