Diversity and Inclusion Committee
Our firmwide Diversity and Inclusion and Women in the Profession Committees are led by two women equity partners (including one Management Committee member) and a former practicing lawyer who works full-time as the firm’s diversity director.
These global committees oversee robust budgets and our employee resource groups (ERGs), which include groups for women lawyers; LGBT employees and allies; lawyers of color; working parents; veterans; and lawyers with disabilities. These groups spearhead programs ranging from women’s business mentorship training in Portland and promoting mental health awareness in London and Melbourne, to assisting transgender individuals with name changes in Melbourne, Pittsburgh and Sydney.
