Our people are our strength, and their differences are assets in creating a richer, more collaborative environment. This is why we foster a culture of inclusion in all we do, both within our firm and in our communities.
Inclusion and excellence are not merely concepts at Tucker Ellis. Our Inclusion Committee has established a dynamic set of objectives and principles to guide us as we work to achieve our goals:
- Embrace character and talent, regardless of age, gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, and religion
- Focus on giving every legal professional the opportunity to grow, succeed, and enjoy a fulfilling career at our firm
- Actively recruit, retain, and promote talented legal professionals of varied backgrounds and encourage leadership opportunities, both within the firm and in the larger community
- The opportunity for all who work here to bring their authentic selves to their workplace, every day
- The belief that we can all learn from each other and our unique backgrounds to make our firm, community, and world a better place
- Offer professional development programming and other resources via inclusion resource groups for legal professionals from all backgrounds
- Partner with clients to build creative and talented teams tailored to their specific matters and business needs
- Provide continuing legal education (CLE) programming focused on inclusion issues
- Continue educating ourselves on ways to strengthen our inclusion efforts
While we’re proud of the progress we’ve made to foster inclusion in the legal profession, we continue to evolve to meet new challenges and needs. Please visit each section of this webpage to learn more about our commitments and how we’re fulfilling them.
