Request A CallbackAt Fisher Jones Greenwood LLP we realise the importance of equality and diversity; and are proud to be signatories of the Law Society’s diversity and inclusion Charter.
Established in 2009, the charter is designed to help practices turn their commitment to diversity and inclusion in to positive, practical action.
It is a public commitment by FJG to promote the values of diversity and inclusion. Whether through recruitment, retention, career progression or training and development, we are committed to improving opportunities for people in the legal profession; regardless of their background or circumstances.
As charter signatories we are required to participate in a biennial report.
This is to show how well we are meeting our charter commitments, and where more work needs to be done. There is also a set of protocols to help us fulfil our commitments, accompanied by checklists and best practice guidelines.
For more information on the Charter, please visit the Law Society by clicking here. You can also download the latest biennial report here.
