Elaine Spector recently shared her thoughts on the mandatory return to office prevalent among many firms as we transition out of the pandemic state, and how the return can disproportionately affect certain demographics.

"Lawyers with families, in particular, could face challenges due to this shift. Many parents find remote work a lifeline, enabling them to be present for their families while delivering exceptional legal services. Eliminating or limiting remote work opportunities may unfairly bias these dedicated professionals. It doesn't need to be this way."
