Anthony Arguijo, Partner and Chair of DE&I Committee
SDM prides itself on its diversity and values the participation of minorities and women in the provision of legal services. Women and minorities make up 49% of our total lawyers and 41% of our equity partners.
We are committed to being a diverse and equitable law firm. SDM stepped out as a trailblazer when the firm named a woman as Managing Partner in 1992, long before many of our peer firms.
We value the contributions that diverse backgrounds bring to our firm and recognize that our clients benefit from these perspectives in solving legal issues. Through its Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Committee, SDM maintains a deliberate and committed effort to support and promote women and minorities at our firm and in the legal industry.
Here are some of the outstanding organizations that we partner with.
