Methods: Exploring an Internet Community -- Gender Inequality in theLegal Practice -- The Dispute Process in the Greedy Associates Community -- Employing Litigation to Redress Gender Inequality-- Lawyers Using Legal Discourse to Challenge Gender Discrimination.

Despite the availability of some formal legal remedies, women attorneys rarely sue their employers, and often do not challenge discriminatory behavior. This book explores this seemingly contradictory situation,where lawyers fail to employ the legal system on their own behalf. By exploring attorneys' use of legal discourse in an Internet community, Baumle examines whether the law can in factserve as a useful tool to challenge inequality. The Internet community itself provides a protected,semi-anonymous forum in which to engage in such discourse, thereby subverting many of the barriers that currently exist to challenging genderinequality in the legal practice.
