Members of Bay Area Lawyers for Individual Freedom, an LGBT bar association, gathered Thursday night to remember L. Julius Turman, a Constangy, Brooks, Smith & Prophete partner and longtime community advocate who died in May. He was 52.

The memorial, held at Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman’s San Francisco office, included a panel of LGBT lawyers of color who knew Turman. Panelists discussed their memories of Turman and his work for equality as an openly gay black lawyer. They also spoke about issues of diversity and intersectionality in the legal profession.
