Stay tuned for ratings of law firms on diversity and connections to the government

I decided to start my own rating of large law firms.

I will rate law firms on the following:

(1) overall racial and ethnic diversity among attorneys (OR)
(2) racial and ethnic diversity among partners/members; (PR)
(3) overall gender diversity among attorneys; (OG)
(4) gender diversity among partners/members (GP)
(5) combined gender/ethnic diversity in partnership (CGRP)
(6) % of attorneys in the firm (whether associates, partners, members, of counsel or counsel) who are  former or present public employees or officials (GCI - government connections index)

I will start publishing actual ratings, probably at a rate of weekly or biweekly.

Stay tuned.
