There is a growing need to facilitate diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts into the evolving area of litigation. DEI in any workplace promotes an environment of fair treatment, open collaboration and, ultimately, better outcomes and understanding. Fostering an environment that aligns with these goals can enhance your role as a litigator by helping you to become self-aware and mindful when representing diverse clients, trying cases before a diverse jury, and collaborating on complex cases with other diverse attorneys and staff.

It is our social and professional responsibility to foster a diverse and inclusive workforce. When these interests merge, implicit biases are reduced in both the workplace and the courtroom, and everyone benefits. Differing perspectives in the workplace, including from attorneys, paralegals and administrative professionals, unite to provide the most optimal representation for clients through innovation and creative thinking.
