Lewis Brisbois is committed to hiring and retaining a diverse group of talented lawyers and staff and demonstrates that commitment by non-discriminatory hiring, retention and promotion policies. The diversity of the Firm's client base is matched by the diversity of our attorneys. With offices from Los Angeles to New York, our attorneys reflect the communities in which they live, with our proportion of minority partners nearly double the national average. Our culture has fostered a diverse group of professionals committed to promoting the best interests of our clients, our communities and the legal profession. We are committed to supporting diversity through new and ongoing relationships with minority and women owned businesses.
The success of these policies is reflected in the fact that Lewis Brisbois has repeatedly received national recognition for its commitment to embracing diversity. In 2010 Lewis Brisbois was ranked #1 in the State of California in the diversity survey published by California Lawyer Magazine; #2 by Multicultural Law Magazine and #3 by American Lawyer Media in its Diversity Scorecard. Lewis Brisbois has consistently ranked in the top 50 of these diversity surveys since 2005.
At Lewis Brisbois, diversity is an integral part of our firm culture and our every day life. We accomplish diversity, not by committee or initiative, but through true practice in hiring the best people for the job and rewarding excellence.
