World Intellectual Property Review interviewed Finnegan partner Beth Ferrill for her thoughts on the pandemic’s impact on women in the workplace. While the pandemic proved to present challenges for many working parents, Beth acknowledged the positive aspects. She said, “I am a single mother of nine-year-old twins who have been attending school virtually. With the reduction in travel and commuting time, I have more time to handle increased childcare and virtual schooling responsibilities.” She added, “This past year was certainly difficult, but one positive outcome is that I have been able to take advantage of additional work opportunities. Because I have more flexibility in my schedule, I have been able to take on depositions, client meetings, speaking opportunities at conferences, and court arguments. I have always worked long hours, but now it feels that my working hours are more effective and efficient.”
