Cozen O’Connor announced its launch of a DEI strategies and solutions practice in response to recent U.S. Supreme Court jurisprudence on affirmative action and diversity efforts as well as contradictory decision-making at the state level.
The group is chaired by South Florida-based litigation partner Simeon Brier, who also serves as chair of the firm’s DEI initiatives and co-chair of the firm’s diversity committee. In addition to Brier, the new practice group has eight points of contact across the firm, including chief diversity officer Lynnette Williams, and two of its ancillary businesses.
