The legal industry plays a crucial role in shaping society and ensuring justice. But its lack of diversity has led to limited perspectives, unequal representation, and systemic biases. To serve our diverse society effectively, the legal profession must reflect the communities it serves. While diversity numbers within the legal profession have been improving, more can be done.
