The National Association for Law Placement (NALP) has released its 2018 report on diversity in U.S. law firms, and 2018 saw the largest increase in diverse partners in NALP’s history—which happens to be .007. While the increase is only seven-tenths of a percentage point nationwide, it still represents progress.

A real takeaway from the NALP survey is how the numbers vary widely geographically, with cities like Miami leading the nation in percentages of diverse partners, diverse women partners, diverse associates, diverse women associates and diverse summer associates, while Philadelphia’s numbers still sit well below the national mean.
