Day Pitney Atty Honored For Helping Other Women Advance

Day Pitney's Litigation department chair and Intellectual Property Partner Elizabeth Alquist was featured in the Law360 Pulse article, "Day Pitney Atty Honored For Helping Other Women Advance," which focuses on Alquist being the recipient of the Connecticut Bar Association's 2022 Ladder Award, which goes to female attorneys who "left the ladder down" for women who follow them.

Andraya Pulaski Brunau, Intellectual Property Partner at Day Pitney and close colleague of Alquist, commented, "Beth does more than leave the ladder down. She climbs back down, gives you a boost, and then climbs back up with you rung by rung. During the climb, she selflessly gives her time, energy, and political capital. If you get tired, she cheers you on and, if needed, carries you on her back. If a rung breaks, she helps devise a plan to fix it and acts on it. She does not take 'no' for an answer. She will not let you give up. She will not let you fail."

"Within our firm, Beth has been a tireless advocate for our efforts to retain, mentor, and promote female attorneys and attorneys of color," added Day Pitney's Managing Partner Thomas Goldberg.
