Inclusion: A Culture of Thriving Together

What We Value

At Ballard Spahr, our skills, perspectives, and backgrounds drive innovation and excellence, while our unique culture encourages us to thrive and succeed together. We believe that our strength lies not just in our individual talents, but in the trust and collaborative spirit we build by caring for one another's well-being and embracing each other's unique perspectives, talents, and experiences. We believe that in doing so, we contribute to a workplace where stability, inclusion, and opportunity for all enable each of us to thrive. 

Our Values in Action

We invest in initiatives that expand access to the legal profession, we deepen client collaborations to strengthen partnerships and unlock new business opportunities, and we expand our recruiting reach by building meaningful relationships that drive business growth.

Our Business Resource Groups (BRGs) are integral to our culture of thriving together. They offer strategic input on key firm initiatives, create meaningful connections, and cultivate a supportive work environment that empowers everyone. BRGs provide a forum where individuals can learn about and discuss its members' respective backgrounds, experiences, personal interests, and unique perspectives. All attorneys and business professionals are welcome and encouraged to join any BRG and participate in the events they sponsor.

A culture of thriving together is a fundamental part of how we deliver the highest level of service and foster a law firm poised for the future, where lawyers and business professionals from all backgrounds and perspectives can succeed.
