We are unlike any law firm – large, small, or mid-sized – and we’re proud to stand out in the field. Our unique culture recognizes and reflects the need to be valued and that the contributions of all our attorneys and staff matter. We hold the tenets of our core belief system close to the heart of BFKN and work hard to maintain it. We believe that we all do our best work when we’re supported, both in and out of the office, and in an environment that includes a casual dress code. Plus, accessibility by everyone to our partners and members of our management team, has infused itself into our workplace.
We encourage our attorneys and staff to find additional satisfaction through volunteer work, DE&I initiatives, pro bono efforts and other contributions that our team members prioritize for the collective good. We know that supporting our people leads them to have fuller, richer lives, which has a ripple effect on their work and time in the office with one another.
We believe that we have the responsibility to be good corporate citizens and encourage involvement through our BFKN Foundation and other firm initiatives to carry the torch of social responsibility through conscious efforts that put our values into action.
Diversity, Equity & Inclusion
Diversity is a core value of BFKN, and the firm is committed to diversity in the broadest sense of the word. Diversity fosters an atmosphere in which a variety of ideas can be fully examined and tested, ultimately producing the best results for our clients. We actively recruit talented professionals and staff based on commitment to personal and professional excellence, and we welcome people of different backgrounds and perspectives. This commitment to diversity and fostering a welcoming culture attracts the most qualified candidates to our firm and creates a rewarding and fulfilling environment for our people. BFKN’s Diversity Committee oversees and facilitates these efforts, often working closely with the Women’s Committee and the BFKN Foundation.
