Happy Pride Month 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ Over the next few weeks, I’m going to be highlighting some LGBTQ+ stats across Biglaw in the hope of raising more awareness and celebrating firms that act, rather than just speak. Despite the progress we’ve made, there are still countless Associates I've worked with in practice and now as a recruiter, that I know choose not to disclose their sexual orientation in case it hinders their interview process or chances at Partnership. This is why representation and visibility is so important! Today, we’re celebrating firms with some of the highest percentages of Partners and Associate who identify as LGBTQ+ 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ 𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐦 | % 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬 | % 𝐀𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP 2.8% | 8.3% A&O Shearman* 16.3% | 19.5% Arnold & Porter 3.5% | 8.1% Brown Rudnick LLP 0% | 10% Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP 4% | 15% Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP 5% | 12% Cooley LLP 2.1% | 8.6% Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP 4% | 7% Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP 4% | 8% Debevoise & Plimpton 4.9% | 9.7% Gibson Dunn 3% | 10% Hogan Lovells 4% | 10% Kirkland & Ellis 3% | 7% Latham & Watkins 3% | 7.4% Linklaters 6% | 8% Morrison Foerster 5% | 12% Ropes & Gray LLP 3% | 9% Sidley Austin LLP 3% | 8% Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP 3% | 8% Sullivan & Cromwell LLP 7.7% | 9.8% Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP 6% | 8.7% Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati 4% | 8% *𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘣𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘥 𝘈&𝘖 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘚𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘯 & 𝘚𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘴 Source: Chambers, 2023 #prideinlaw #dei #pridemonth #biglawpride #lgbtq

🔒 Safeguard Your Business: Exploring the Benefits of Business Protection for UK Business Owners 🔒 As a business owner, your enterprise is not just a source of income—it's your lifeline, your passion, and your legacy. That's why protecting it against unforeseen risks and challenges is crucial for long-term success. Let's delve into the benefits of business protection and why it's a smart investment for UK business owners: 1️⃣ Financial Security: Business protection ensures that your company's finances are shielded from unexpected events such as the death or critical illness of a key employee or business partner. With the right policies in place, you can mitigate financial losses and maintain continuity during difficult times. 2️⃣ Key Person Protection: Your business may rely heavily on the expertise and contributions of key individuals. Key person protection provides financial support to the business in the event of their death or incapacity, helping to cover costs such as recruitment, training, and loss of revenue. 3️⃣ Shareholder Protection: If you have business partners, shareholder protection insurance can safeguard their interests in the company. In the event of a partner's death or critical illness, the policy provides funds for the remaining partners to purchase their shares, ensuring smooth transition of ownership and preserving the business's stability. 4️⃣ Loan Protection: Many businesses rely on loans and credit facilities to fund their operations or expansion plans. Business protection insurance can cover outstanding debts in the event of the borrower's death or disability, preventing financial strain on the business and its stakeholders. 5️⃣ Business Continuity: Planning for the unexpected is essential for maintaining business continuity. With the right protection measures in place, you can minimize disruptions and ensure that your business can continue operating smoothly even in challenging circumstances, safeguarding your reputation and relationships with clients and suppliers. 6️⃣ Peace of Mind: Running a business comes with its share of uncertainties, but having robust protection measures in place provides peace of mind for you, your employees, and your stakeholders. Knowing that your business is prepared for any eventuality allows you to focus on growth and innovation with confidence. In summary, business protection is not just about safeguarding assets—it's about protecting your vision, your hard work, and your legacy. By investing in the right protection measures, you can secure the future of your business and ensure its resilience in the face of adversity. #BusinessProtection #UKBusinessOwners #FinancialSecurity #RiskManagement #BusinessContinuity #PeaceOfMind #BusinessInsurance
