We prioritize expanding opportunity for all our team members, particularly those who are from challenged backgrounds or underserved communities. It starts with hiring and promotion policies, from expanding our pool of candidates to encouraging a culture where partner mentors and sponsors support or work with a diverse range of lawyers to propel their career growth.

We are proud to be a recognized leader in LGBTQ+ workplace diversity and inclusion: We have scored 100% on the Human Rights Campaign’s Corporate Equality Index as a Best Place to Work for LGBTQ Equality for 18 consecutive years.

We actively bolster equality within and outside our firm, recruiting LGBTQ+ candidates and forming pro bono partnerships with LGBTQ+ nonprofits. We also regularly sponsor and donate to a variety of events for LGBTQ+ organizations.

Our LGBTQ+ committee, one of the first to be established in an international firm, works to ensure a supportive, inclusive environment. In 2002, we extended domestic partner benefits to same-sex partners, more than a decade before marriage equality was granted across the US. We adopted a nondiscrimination policy inclusive of transgender people in 2006, followed shortly afterward by gender transition guidelines to support transgender lawyers and business professionals.
