For the second consecutive year, Baker Donelson has been named to Bloomberg Law's annual Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion (DEI) Framework.
Baker Donelson is one of 43 U.S.-based law firms that were recognized for their level of disclosure of diversity-related metrics and distinguished performance in six core pillars: demographics, leadership and talent pipeline, recruitment and retention, business innovation and strategy, marketing, and diversity and inclusion in the community. More information about the Bloomberg Law 2022 DEI Framework, the methodology, and a full list of members, is available at http://onb-law.com/QXba50K1gaq.
"The desire to incorporate DEI into the selection process for outside legal services presents a new challenge for the industry, but Baker Donelson has distinguished itself as a law firm worthy of consideration," said Joe Breda, president of Bloomberg Law. "Through a demonstrated commitment to DEI, Baker Donelson is helping to move the legal industry forward, and we recognize their performance by naming them as a member of our 2022 DEI Framework."
Bloomberg Law's DEI Framework was developed in 2021 in collaboration with Bloomberg's Gender-Equality Index team, as well as diversity leads at corporations and U.S.-based law firms. Performance was assessed in more than 85 metrics, each associated with one of the framework's six core pillars.
