One in three general counsel are planning to introduce new or enhanced diversity requirements for their external legal advisers, a survey of top in-house lawyers has found.
The poll of 86 U.K. senior in-house counsel conducted by Legal Week in conjunction with New Law service Lexoo found 34% are looking to introduce targets, while 30% said they have changed or turned down external counsel for not presenting a diverse enough team.
