“As a leader in my firm’s flexible work programs, it’s incredibly valuable to be able to work with the Alliance, share our latest thinking, and receive real-time feedback on programs we’re looking to initiate. The Alliance has a wealth of research, data, and case studies available for members to help maximize our policies and programs. The Alliance team of professionals make themselves available to talk to leaders in your firm and strategize with you.”

“The loss of talented women and diverse attorneys is not merely regrettable, but avoidable. We must ensure that diverse and women attorneys are sponsored and are provided with meaningful opportunities to grow as practitioners and to demonstrate the full breadth of their abilities. Now is the time for law firm leaders to ensure we make the changes necessary to avoid these losses.”
— Benjamin F. WilsonPrincipal, Beveridge & Diamond PC
“I’m passionate about flexibility, but I need to be able to talk to my partners and everyone at the firm and explain that flexibility is not just as passion, not just that it’s what’s right – but also in terms of it being a business imperative. The Alliance really gives you the tools to be able to do that. ”

– Kim KoopersmithChair, Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld

“By participating in the Diversity & Flexibility Alliance’s Flexibility Benchmarking Survey, Ogletree Deakins was able to analyze existing policies and pinpoint where they could be improved.
