Diversity

SettlePou is dedicated to promoting a diverse and inclusive culture consistent with its core values of respect, responsiveness, and results.  We recognize the importance of reflecting the diversity of our clients and community in our workplace.  We understand that diversity promotes a strong firm by contributions from many of differing backgrounds and cultures.  We also know that a diverse firm provides the highest level of excellence in services to our clients. 

SettlePou values the unique differences in our employees, including race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, life experiences, education, career path, family responsibilities, hobbies, personal values, personality, politics, religion, and cultural and socio-economic backgrounds.  We believe the wide array of perspectives that results from such diversity promotes innovation and business success.  We treat all people with respect and dignity and strive to create and foster a supportive and understanding environment in which all individuals realize their maximum potential within the firm, regardless of their differences. 

SettlePou recognizes that racism, ageism, sexism, and other forms of discrimination are problems of our community and society as a whole.  In addition to creating and promoting an atmosphere of diversity within the firm, SettlePou has also committed to involvement in the community to promote and advance diversity.  SettlePou has been long-time sponsors of the Texas Minority Counsel Program and was a sponsor of the National Association of Women Lawyers Mid-Year Meeting.  SettlePou is committed to the promotion of minority, women, and LGBTQ attorneys to be involved in all aspects of our firm and with all of our clients. 

SettlePou will continue to promote firm involvement in inclusive and diverse community organizations and work to ensure the retention and advancement of attorneys and staff of diverse backgrounds.  We look forward to further growth in this area.
