This year we also recognized a company dedicated to advancing women in the workplace. Calfee, Halter & Griswold LLP was chosen as the inaugural recipient of the Advancing Women Award. From communication styles to societal expectations, from family needs to professional ambition, women face different challenges in the workplace. Calfee, Halter & Griswold LLP is a full-service corporate law firm with more than 160 attorneys in Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati, Ohio offices.Calfee is committed to diversity and inclusion, both within the walls of its firm and in our communities. One-third of the firm’s practice group chair, or co-chairs, are women … as are 60 percent of its directors and managers. To encourage and support women in the legal industry, Calfee has initiated several programs, from the “Lifestyle Resources” program - which provides its attorneys and staff assistance with everyday chores like dry cleaning and alterations, “sick child” care and IT support at home - to the “Women of Calfee” affinity group and a mentoring program called “Navigating Calfee.” In the community, Calfee is a longtime supporter of many local women-focused organizations. Its attorneys provide pro bono legal assistance to the Cleveland Rape Crisis Center, and Calfee attorneys sit on the board of directors for organizations that include The Cleveland Foundation, The Laurel School, the CRCC and many others.
