A Message From the Editor

Good morning. Another International Women's Day is almost here. Not everyone is thrilled. Read the contributed piece by general counsel Terra Potter to see why. Also, Sullivan & Cromwell is pulling out all the stops to overturn a $16 billion U.S. ruling against Argentina, with Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe and Foley Hoag filing amicus briefs on behalf of Brazil, Uruguay, Chile and Ecuador. And Pinsent Masons, the law firm where Vanessa Ford worked before taking her life last fall, responds to the fallout that followed the inquest.

– Lisa Shuchman, Executive Editor, Law.com International
