Representing 85 nationalities and speaking more than 60 languages, the rich mosaic that makes up the legal and professional staff at White & Case is a source of strength, vital to our ability to effectively represent our diverse community of clients throughout the world.

In fact, it is the mission of our Diversity Committee to continue to build upon this strength and create an environment where all who work at White & Case are encouraged, assisted and inspired to reach their potential, regardless of race, color, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, age, marital status or disability.

Our Diversity Committee coordinates with the Firm’s Women’s Initiative, Women’s Network, Employment Committee, Lawyers Committee, Training and Development Committee, Professional Development and Recruitment department and Pro Bono department to develop and drive innovative and strategic diversity initiatives. These include leadership training, workshops on preventing sexual harassment and discrimination, mentoring, creation and support of affinity groups and professional development programs geared to help our lawyers succeed while feeling respected and valued.

As a global firm, we are fortunate that the nature of our partnership ensures a rich and complex community. If you have questions regarding any of the Firm’s diversity initiatives, please contact our manager of diversity programs, Maxine Williams at  mwilliams@whitecase.com.
