Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion at Nichols Kaster, LLP

Diversity, equity, and inclusion are at the center of Nichols Kaster’s litigation practice and are core values of our firm’s culture. Our experienced litigators are committed to fighting for civil rights and anti-discrimination in employment, educational, and consumer settings on behalf of clients nationwide.

Nichols Kaster is also dedicated to ensuring that all employees at our firm feel welcome and respected at the workplace. To further our commitment, Nichols Kaster formed a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Committee comprised of partners, associates, and staff members. This Committee continuously evaluates our firm’s policies and practices with a DEI lens to ensure that our firm continues to live up to its values.

Specifically, the DEI Committee develops goals and initiates changes in the following areas:

• The firm’s hiring of attorneys and staff
• Climate and retention of attorneys and staff
• The firm’s policies, practices, and community outreach

The Co-Chairs of Nichols Kaster LLP’s 2021-2022 DEI Committee are:
