DEI
The diversity amongst our attorneys and employees has always been something that we pride ourselves on. A diverse workplace enhances our practice and better serves clients throughout Illinois.
Yet there has always been more to do. Starting in 2020, we made a significant commitment to not only increasing the diversity amongst our employees, but also making sure to focus on the equity and inclusion components so that our employees feel part of one team and have meaningful opportunities for growth and advancement.
To that end, our firm created the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Leadership Committee.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Leadership Committee members include:
- Zaria Udeh, Partner
- Matthew Gardner, Partner
- Aaron Kacel, Partner
- Maritza Guevara, Marketing & Engagement Specialist
- Flor Gomez, Human Resources Manager
This committee, comprised of a diverse group of attorneys and other professionals in different areas of the Firm, will lead Robbins Schwartz's DEI efforts. The DEI Leadership Committee will provide guidance to the Firm's management about strategies for continuing to improve the diversity, inclusion, and equity within our firm, and will also lead various subcommittees related to recruitment and retention, cultural events and awareness, and scholarships and community involvement.
