By: HKA Marketing Communications Law360 research indicates that women in the industry represent only 36.3 percent of attorneys at firms and only 24.8 percent of partners. CDF greatly values diversity and gender-equality with women and minority attorneys playing an integral role in managing and shaping the future of the firm. Today, female and minority attorneys make up over 48 percent of partners. In addition, 52 percent of total firm wide attorneys are female, and 28 percent are minorities – culminating in CDF's total attorney headcount at 60 percent females or minorities. "We're so proud to receive national recognition from Law360's 2019 Glass Ceiling Report for making strides in bridging the gap and creating a diverse work environment, reflective of the employers we represent," said Marie DiSante (https://www.cdflaborlaw.com/ The firm has focused on the recruitment, development and retention of the best and brightest from all walks of life and backgrounds to support growth and serve the needs of its diverse clients. In addition to the tremendous efforts of the firm's Diversity and Inclusion Committee, co-chaired by Dave Carothers (https://www.cdflaborlaw.com/ "This well-deserved recognition as one of the Best Firms for Women and Minority Attorneys underscores the firm's commitment to support, mentor and develop women and minority attorneys – truly a top-down approach that reflects one of the core values of the firm," said CDF attorney and former President of the Thurgood Marshall Bar Association of Orange County, Denisha P. McKenzie (https://www.cdflaborlaw.com/ For the annual Glass Ceiling Report, Law360 surveyed more than 300 national firms about their demographics as of Dec. 31, 2018, considering the relative gender diversity of the firm's attorney workforce. In order to make these prestigious lists, Law360 grouped firms based on U.S. attorney headcount and ranked them by the percentage of female and minority non-partners and partners. The top ranked firms in every tier were then ranked using a formula that equally weights the percentage of non-partners and percentage of total non-partners who are minorities and women.
