We partner with legal recruitment agencies to strengthen their understanding of diversity, equity and inclusion — with a particular focus on social mobility within the legal profession.
Our workshops are designed specifically for agencies placing mid-level lawyers, senior associates and partners, because we believe that inclusive hiring doesn’t stop at entry level.
What We Cover
Social mobility in the legal sector - what it really means
How bias shows up in mid- and senior-level hiring
Evaluating “polish” vs potential
Client expectations vs inclusive practice
Building diverse shortlists credibly and confidently
Understanding the lived experience of underrepresented lawyers
We don’t deliver theory-heavy DE&I sessions. Instead, we provide commercially grounded, sector-aware conversations that reflect the realities of legal recruitment - fee targets, client pressure and competitive markets included.
The Outcome
Greater confidence discussing diversity with clients
Stronger, more inclusive longlists and shortlists
Increased credibility with DE&I-conscious firms
Better alignment with modern law firm expectations
Workshops are delivered in-person or virtually and tailored to your team’s level and focus.
If you recruit into the legal sector and want to lead — not lag — on inclusion, get in touch.
“Bertilla’s session on EDI was very informative and very well received by our team, who walked away from the 4-hour workshop feeling more aware of the rising importance of social mobility within legal recruitment and more equipped to articulate with clients on this important topic.”
