# The American Lawyer Quotes Partner Sarah L. Reid on Firm’s Success in Diversity

 June 1, 2011

 

 

 

 

 

 

*The American Lawyer* article, ​“Back On Track?” noted the percentage of minority lawyers at law firms has edged up. The reporter noted the increase in diversity across big firms is noteworthy as it halts a dip in minority lawyers last year. The publication compiles its ​“Diversity Scorecard” by sending surveys to firms in The Am Law 100 and The NLJ (National Law Journal) 250.

The article noted Kelley Drye moved up in the Scorecard rankings, ​“added 15 lateral associates in 2010; five were minorities, according to the firm’s head of diversity, **Sarah Reid**. Overall the firm saw a 1.5 percent increase in the number of minority lawyers in 2010.”
