Fertility Benefits in the Legal Services Industry

This report examines the state of fertility benefits within the legal services industry, highlighting the importance of such benefits for employee retention. A survey conducted with 500 respondents in the U.S. legal services sector revealed that nearly half lacked access to fertility coverage through their employers, with a significant portion unsure about their coverage status. The findings indicate that 77% of those with fertility benefits felt more inclined to remain with their current firm. The report also notes that 83% of respondents without fertility support would find such benefits valuable, particularly fertility preservation options, which are appealing to early-career lawyers. The data suggests that comprehensive fertility benefits can serve as effective recruitment and retention tools, demonstrating a firm's commitment to supporting employees' personal goals.
