    The Motherhood Penalty In Law: How The Landmark ABA Study Puts Numbers Behind Lawyer Parents' Careers With Stephanie Scharf And Bobbi Liebenberg
    Apr 28 2026

    For years, lawyer parents—especially mothers—have intuitively felt the immense challenges of balancing career and caregiving. Now, the data is in. We dive into the landmark ABA Parenthood in the Legal Profession Study with two leaders behind the research, Stephanie Scharf and Bobbi Liebenberg. Based on responses from 8,000 lawyers, this study provides the numbers and nuances behind some hard truths: motherhood carries a measurable career penalty, caregiving disproportionately impacts women’s advancement and compensation, and flexibility often comes with unintended negative consequences for leadership and visibility.


    But this conversation isn’t just about what’s broken. Scharf and Liebenberg share actionable strategies for individuals, law firms, and bar associations to intentionally shift the narrative, moving toward an environment where parenting is celebrated as a leadership strength, not a liability. Read on to learn how we can all be called to act to make the legal profession better for mothers and for lawyers.
