DIVERSITY in the workplace is both a moral imperative and a business necessity. Plunkett Cooney values the contributions brought to the firm by a workforce diverse in background, life experience, and cultural perspective. To celebrate diversity is to acknowledge, respect, appreciate and value individual differences. Characteristics that make us diverse include, but are not limited to, age, race, nationality and ethnicity, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religious beliefs and marital status.

In today's competitive business environment, our clients expect and demand legal services providers who reflect the diversity of the communities in which we practice.
