Inclusion

Together, we foster an inclusive environment that results in more creative ideas, more productive discussions and better solutions for our clients.

Community building and education are incredibly important towards championing inclusivity and nurturing a culture of belonging.”

We recognize the importance of aligning our firm with the various communities in which we do business. That’s why we have developed and implemented comprehensive policies and programs to support the recruitment and retention of talented professionals from a wide range of backgrounds, experiences and perspectives at all levels, ensuring team members have a path to long-term success at the firm.

We are proud of our culture, where colleagues recognize the importance of equity and belonging, and we are committed to advancing inclusion within our firm, across the legal profession and in the communities we serve.

Loeb & Loeb’s Inclusion Committee—comprised of twelve partners who represent each of the firm’s U.S. offices— is the driving force behind our inclusion and belonging initiatives. The committee sets the strategy for enhancing inclusion at Loeb, working with firm leadership and dedicated affinity groups to strengthen our culture of belonging and maintain an environment in which all our people have an equal opportunity to flourish.

Professional Development

Our firm offers a range of programs to support the growth and advancement of our lawyers and professionals. These initiatives strengthen our culture of collaboration and excellence by empowering individuals to thrive, share knowledge and contribute fully to Loeb’s success. Through training, education, coaching and mentorship, we equip our people with ongoing access to the tools and resources necessary to deliver exceptional results for our clients.

Community Education

We host firmwide special seminars focused on culturally and socially relevant topics, providing opportunities for our people to deepen their understanding of issues shaping our communities and the legal profession. These ongoing educational programs foster knowledge, broaden perspectives and encourage engagement with important conversations.

Training & Development

All employees participate in annual training designed to reinforce our firm policies and underscore Loeb’s commitment to a respectful, inclusive and supportive workplace culture.

We provide a range of in-house Continuing Legal Education (CLE) programs to help our lawyers stay current with legal developments, maintain professional credentials and support ongoing growth and excellence in legal practice.

Coaching & Mentorship

We have a comprehensive business development program that includes guidance on individual lawyer practice growth strategies, as well as ongoing marketing support and resources to further practice development. Lawyers can participate in annual workshops covering topics that address a wide range of marketing and business development best practices, and also have access to individual coaching sessions to develop tailored growth plans.

BridgeBuilders is our mentoring initiative designed to strengthen professional relationships and promote career development across the firm. Junior lawyers connect with senior mentors across departments, gaining insights, guidance and support as they build their careers. Mentors also benefit by sharing their knowledge and experience while helping colleagues navigate challenges and achieve success together.

Health & Wellness

In addition to firm-sponsored EAP programs, our internal Well-Being initiative is designed to help every team member thrive by fostering a healthy, supportive workplace culture. We offer a range of resources, including expert-led webinars, fitness challenges and other programs to support physical, emotional and mental well-being throughout the year. This inclusive initiative brings our commitment to personal and professional wellness to life, helping our people feel empowered, connected and resilient.

Affinity and Resource Groups

Loeb’s affinity groups play a vital role in fostering connection, engagement and professional development across the firm. These lawyer-led groups provide opportunities for networking, mentorship, knowledge-sharing and collaboration in support of individual growth and firmwide excellence.

These groups help cultivate community and serve as a forum for networking, mentorship, and professional and business development. Open to all interested lawyers and allies, each group takes a tailored approach to supporting the advancement and retention of our lawyers and leaders, building and maintaining networks with clients and the community, and fostering engagement among our legal professionals at all levels.
