Thompson Coburn has released the Firm’s 2022 Diversity & Inclusion Report, which details all of our diversity, equity and inclusion efforts throughout the previous year. The 55-page document covers our outreach to diverse law students, updates from our affinity groups, information about our firmwide mental health and well-being resources, and much more.
In 2022, our Firm continued our commitment to cultivate our D&I efforts and recognition through new and ongoing initiatives:
- We achieved Mansfield Rule 5.0 “Certified Plus” status and signed on to participate in the Mansfield 6.0 Certification process to expand diversity and equity in Big Law.
- We received high-level Firm recognition from the Diversity & Flexibility Alliance, Law360, WILEF, and Bloomberg Law’s Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion (DEI) Framework.
- We celebrated the incredible legacy of our past Diversity Committee Chair Tony Anderson.
- We awarded Thomas F. Eagleton Scholarships to two diverse and very deserving law students.
- We continued to hold bias awareness workshops and training sessions for all new attorneys, paralegals, and staff in our offices across the United States.
