We recognize that every employee is a vital part of the firm and that diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) helps us serve the needs of our clients. We are proudly committed to providing equal opportunities for all.

Employee Resource Groups

Within the Committee, our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) create the space for our attorneys and staff to openly and safely discuss issues, build and maintain an equal and supportive work environment, and support members in their efforts to succeed. Each ERG is chaired by members of the staff and attorneys.

We are a charter member of the Law Firm Antiracism Alliance (LFAA). The LFAA is a national collaborative effort between nearly 150 law firms, working together to amplify the voices of the communities and individuals oppressed by racism. Dedicated to seeking out and eradicating systemic racism, the LFAA uses the law as a vehicle for meaningful change and to promote racial equity within the legal industry.
