According to Legal Innovators’ CEO, Bryan Parker, “One of the things that helps with associate development is our training, mentoring, and performance coaching that is specifically curated toward the developmental needs of each lawyer. During this period, the lawyers remain employees of Legal Innovators. We appreciate the validation of our model these new partnerships represent.”
“We chose Legal Innovators because their unique talent management process produces a diverse pipeline of well trained and qualified candidates,” said Robert Bodian, Managing Partner at Mintz. “The associates arrive at our firm having gone through rigorous preparation and are constantly improving their skills through Legal Innovators’ ongoing training program. We look forward to the lawyers working with us to provide excellent service to our clients and the mentoring Legal Innovators provides to the next generation of lawyers through this innovative approach.”
Edwin Harron, Member, Executive Committee and Partner at Young Conaway said, “We are thrilled to be the first Delaware law firm to partner with Legal Innovators. This partnership advances our firm’s DE&I Strategic Plan, and Young Conaway’s unwavering pledge to provide opportunities to highly qualified diverse attorneys. As part of that commitment, we will provide the support and resources needed for diverse junior talent to hone their legal skills and thrive at Young Conaway. We are confident that Legal Innovators’ partnership with law firms, such as ours, will have a meaningful impact on improving diversity outcomes in the legal profession, and look forward to welcoming our first Legal Innovators Fellow this month.”
Legal Innovators’ driving mission is to bring greater diversity to law firms and corporate legal departments through a more inclusive recruiting approach. Backed by a predictive algorithm that assists the company and its partners, Legal Innovators augments the traditional recruiting factors of law school ranking and grades alone with predictive data that can highlight whether an associate can perform at the required level. The company believes that their comprehensive, data driven approach to talent management sets the associate candidates up for success, and results in greater inclusivity within the legal industry.
