Asker Saeed has spent more than a decade working to advance workplace diversity, first as an attorney handling commercial law and real estate transactions with Murtha Cullina and then later helping to organize the South Asian Bar Association of Connecticut. As the new diversity director for the state’s biggest law firm, Day Pitney, Saeed is now focusing on diversity as a full-time job. He is the newest member of the firm’s senior management team.
In addition to developing new programs to attract and keep top talent at the firm, Saeed will carry on many diversity initiatives already in place. Those include the Day Pitney Attorneys of Color Network (DPAC), whose mission is to foster an inclusive environment to promote the success of attorneys of color.
