As the legal and political landscape for diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs and policies develop, Pillsbury stands ready to help navigate a path forward.
In the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision restricting affirmative action in higher education, DEI initiatives across sectors face increased scrutiny and legal challenges. For organizations committed to the value of incorporating DEI principles into their programs and workplaces, a careful review of both the underlying structure and practical execution of their DEI efforts is critical.
Pillsbury’s team of DEI Compliance, Counseling & Defense professionals guides public companies, private employers, government contractors, nonprofit organizations and educational institutions through the process of identifying and mitigating risks related to DEI efforts, assists clients in the architecture of lawful DEI initiatives, and provides robust representation in responding to investigations or legal claims.
