In this International Women's Day special, we speak with two prominent female lawyers who have both reached the top level in their careers: Felicity Tulloch, Head of Licensing at Kuits and Emma Gill, Senior Director at Vardags.

Topics on the agenda include how things have (or haven't) changed for women in the profession since they qualified, how Emma and Felicity found personal success in their careers, and what the future looks like for the next generation of women in law.
