We are pleased to be recognized by the Daily Report for our diversity recruitment initiatives. The article highlights how the firm “embarked on a quantifiable diversity push at the start of 2020, tracking the percentages of women and minority lawyers at each phase of the talent pipeline from summer associates to equity partners, and set concrete improvement targets by 2025.”
Partners Douglas Burrell and J.C. Roper, Jr., and Chief Operating Officer Christy Walsh were interviewed for this article. Burrell and Roper are members of the Diversity & Inclusion Committee, and were able to speak to the firm’s Path2Partnership and 1L Diversity Fellowship programs.
