A Message From the Editor

Good morning. Today we bring you Europe's 2024 Female Rising Stars, featuring some of the best up-and-coming women lawyers on the continent. In another story, we look at how women lawyers are faring in Japan. And we're also covering Hong Kong's independent law firms, which increasingly have been forming tie-ups with Chinese firms to survive.
