Summit Named a Ceiling Smasher

Summit is very happy to announce that Law360 has ranked it among the "100 Best U.S. Law Firms for Women." This ranking is based on the firm's female representation at the partner and nonpartner levels, and its total number of female attorneys. In addition, Summit was ranked No. 7 in Law360's 2016 "Glass Ceiling" report, which consists of the top 25 U.S. law firms that have the highest percentage of female partners.

Summit appreciates this recognition as it continues to pilot the way for women attorneys in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. While discarding the pyramid structure of most traditional firms, which we believe helps address many of the hurdles women attorneys often face early in their legal careers, Summit continually strives to be a forerunner by supporting family-friendly policies, together with placing a focus on strengthening women’s representation and influence in leadership roles within the firm.
