Starting in the legal chambers of London as a Barrister and New York attorney in 2000, I (Sam Abeysekera) navigated the paths of international private practice, senior in-house roles, and business. Early on, I recognized the disparities and limitations faced by women in law worldwide and began honing methods to thrive, not knowing that this would form the foundation of my mission more than twenty years later.
My goal is simple: to create the playbook for partners to thrive, so no woman has to figure it out alone. From pioneering client solutions and reshaping laws, to receiving the Marquis 'Who's Who in America 2024' award (without any financial contribution!), I’m driven by a commitment to equality and breaking barriers. My mission is to equip women law partners with the tools to succeed and to build a thriving community where women empower each other—and everyone wins.
