With New Billable Hours Policy, Biglaw Firm Solidifies Commitment to Making Legal Profession More Inclusive
“Biglaw firms across the country are implementing all manner of initiatives to bring attention to the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion among their ranks. We’ve previously acknowledged s firms where approved diversity and inclusion-related work will be billable for attorneys and will count,” reports Staci Zaretsky in Above The Law.
“Stoel Rives a firm that brought in $259,328,000 gross revenue in 2020 is putting its money where its mouth is when it comes to its commitment to diversity and inclusion with its new billable hours policy. This is a firm that truly cares about diversity. Last month, Stoel received Mansfield Rule 4.0 Plus Certification from the Diversity Lab.”
