Farella Recognized by Leadership Council on Legal Diversity as a 2022 Compass Award Winner
Farella Braun + Martel is proud to announce it has been named a 2022 Compass Award winner for the third year in a row by the Leadership Council on Legal Diversity (LCLD), recognizing law firms and corporations who show a strong commitment to building more diverse organizations and a more inclusive legal profession.
The Compass Award recognizes individuals and organizations that fulfill all of the following requirements in a single calendar year: member attendance at the LCLD Annual Membership Meeting and/or member attendance at a Leadership Summit and/or submission of a Leader’s Pledge, participation in the LCLD Fellows and Pathfinder Programs, and participation in an LCLD Pipeline program.
In 2022, Farella partner Janice Reicher was named to the LCLD Fellows program and senior associates Ashley Breakfield and Cynthia Castillo were selected to be LCLD Pathfinders.
LCLD is one of the nation’s leading organizations promoting diversity and consists of more than 430 corporate chief legal officers and law firm managing partners who have dedicated themselves to creating a truly diverse U.S. legal profession. Last year, LCLD’s Board of Directors announced a requirement for each member to create a public pledge detailing actions they will take to advance diverse talent. We are proud to be among those organizations that created a pledge by the June 2022 deadline.
Celebrating our 60th anniversary, Farella Braun + Martel is a leading Northern California law firm representing corporate and private clients in sophisticated business transactions and complex commercial, civil and criminal litigation.
