Staffing the firm with a diverse talent pool provides clients with a more complete, and therefore more creative, legal team.

One of Hill Ward Henderson’s Guiding Principles reads: We embrace, support and avidly seek diversity and inclusion in our workplace, and we disavow racism and discrimination in all forms.  We believe that a truly diverse and inclusive firm, focused on merit, provides greater value to our clients, our employees and our community.

Much of Hill Ward Henderson’s important work in this area is being supported by its Diversity & Inclusion Committee (“D & I Committee”). The D & I Committee is made up of a diverse group of lawyers from across the firm in varying roles. The D & I Committee identifies strategic initiatives as they relate to diversity and inclusion and charts a course to execute on those initiatives.

Our attorneys are themselves outspoken advocates for diversity and inclusion in our profession and in our community. They are participants and leaders in a variety of organizations. While not an exclusive list of all attorney involvement in this arena, the following are just a few of the organizations in which our lawyers are actively involved: Disabled American Veterans, Florida Association of Women Lawyers, George Edgecomb Bar Association, Indo-US Chamber of Commerce, South Asian Bar Association, Tampa Hispanic Bar Association, and the Tampa Bay Chamber of Commerce Minority Business Accelerator. The firm encourages this type of involvement, and supports our attorneys’ efforts with both in-kind and financial assistance.
