Our Commitment to Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI)

At Law Smith, we are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace that values and respects the contributions of all individuals, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, religion, ability, or any other characteristic that makes us unique.

Founded by members of the BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, Person of Color) community, we understand firsthand the importance of creating an environment where everyone feels welcome, supported, and empowered to succeed. We recognize that promoting diversity and inclusion is not only the right thing to do, but it also benefits our employees, customers, and the community as a whole.

To ensure that we are creating a diverse and inclusive workplace, we always seek to:

  1. Attract and Retain Diverse Talent: We will actively seek out diverse candidates for all open positions and will provide equal opportunities for advancement to all employees, regardless of their background or identity.

  2. Create a Culture of Inclusion: We will foster a workplace culture that is respectful, supportive, and inclusive of all employees. This includes providing training and resources to help employees understand and appreciate diversity, as well as promoting open communication and collaboration.

  3. Foster Employee Engagement: We will encourage and support employee-led diversity and inclusion initiatives, including Employee Resource Groups, mentoring programs, and community outreach programs.

  4. Promote Partner Diversity: We will seek out and work with suppliers and vendors who share our commitment to diversity and inclusion.

  5. Monitor and Measure Our Progress: We will regularly review and assess our diversity and inclusion efforts to identify areas for improvement and track our progress toward our goals.

We believe that a diverse and inclusive workplace is critical to our success as a company and as a community. We are committed to promoting diversity and inclusion in all aspects of our business and will continue to work toward creating a workplace where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered to achieve their full potential.
