Diversity



Diversity is essential to our firm's continued success. It enables us to better understand and appreciate the complexity of our clients' experiences and points of view. We believe that diverse legal teams bring broader perspectives to problem-solving, resulting in better solutions for our clients.

Everyone at Bass, Berry & Sims shares the responsibility of building a workplace rich in diversity, reflecting our clients and the communities we serve. We have established a diversity committee to lead this effort. The Diversity Committee is comprised of attorneys, including our managing partner and our hiring partners, with the authority and position to implement our diversity plan.

"Shortly after joining the firm, I quickly realized that every individual practicing at Bass, Berry & Sims, regardless of race, is provided both the opportunities and tools necessary to succeed in our profession. The thing that actually has most impressed me about working this firm is that my race has never been an issue, nor has it played a role in my success with the firm." - Clarence Wilbon, Member
