BakerHostetler has been awarded Meta’s top outside counsel diversity honor for the second year in a row, coming in first of 44 law firms based on Meta’s 2023 Outside Counsel Diversity Survey. The company has also recognized BakerHostetler for exceeding Meta’s billing guidelines, which require that its matters are staffed with at least 50% diverse timekeepers.

In determining which law firm to recognize as its diversity champion each year, Meta looks at multiple factors: the diversity of teams that work on Meta matters, the diversity of relationship partners, the leadership and high-value opportunities afforded to diverse attorneys working on Meta matters, diversity initiatives, and the diversity makeup of a firm’s incoming partner class.

“This recognition showcases our efforts to prioritize inclusion and diversity within our own ranks and in the legal profession more broadly. I am proud of the initiatives and programs we have developed to provide greater opportunities for women and diverse attorneys to succeed and advance within our firm. We appreciate working with Meta on this shared priority," says Chairman Paul Schmidt.

Key BakerHostetler diversity initiatives include a year-long professional development program for diverse associates that offers leadership opportunities, visibility, and a clear path to partnership; our diversity council and multiple affinity groups, which provide strategic direction and guidance on inclusion and diversity efforts across the firm, including with respect to the recruitment, retention, and advancement of diverse attorneys; and a broad range of pro bono efforts on behalf of LGBTQ+ individuals and organizations, sexual assault and domestic violence survivors, and veterans, among others.

“It’s an honor to be recognized as Meta’s top outside counsel for inclusion and diversity two years in a row,” says Partner Jeewon Kim Serrato, one of BakerHostetler’s Lawyers in Charge for Meta and responsible for Meta’s privacy matters. “We are so proud of our team who works side by side with Meta to advise on cutting edge and high impact matters.”

“Meta has taken a leadership role in transforming diversity, equity and inclusion in the legal field for the better,” says Counsel Cory Davis, who manages Meta’s intellectual property-related matters at BakerHostetler. “We are very privileged and honored to partner with Meta to bring about much-needed change in the legal industry.”
