Boies Schiller Flexner is committed to diversity and inclusion at the firm, in the legal profession, and in society as a whole. We are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive work environment that supports the recruitment, retention, and advancement of people from all backgrounds, at all levels of the firm. We believe that teams with diverse viewpoints and perspectives are critical to providing creative solutions to the unique needs of our global client base. Our firm was founded on the principle that great lawyering includes acting for the public interest. In our over 20-year history, we have regularly tackled important social issues and fought for marginalized groups, including the successful representation of plaintiffs which invalidated California Proposition 8 banning same-sex marriage. Diversity and inclusion is front and center for the strategic vision of our firm.
