Mouledoux, Bland, Legrand & Brackett is pleased to announce that on October 14, 2021, the Louisiana State Bar Association (LSBA) presented the firm with a Certificate of Commendation for Executing Statement of Diversity Principles. The certificate was presented in recognition of MBLB’s exemplification of the highest standards of professionalism in the area of diversity.
As stated by the LSBA, “On behalf of its Board of Governors and more than 20,000 members, the Louisiana State Bar Association extends to you its appreciation for your overall commitment to diversity in the legal profession in Louisiana and your pledge to use your best efforts to increase diversity and to promote and participate in appropriate diversity programs.”
MBLB’s Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Initiatives
In March of 2021, MBLB launched several initiatives to ensure that diversity, equity and inclusion are part of the firm’s “DNA.” We established a firm Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Committee, joined the Leadership Council on Legal Diversity, helped to organize the New Orleans Law Firm Diversity Committee, and began the Affinity Newsletter, which allows diverse voices and points of view to be shared, both within our firm and externally.
We will continue to work to achieve these goals and endeavor for steady progress toward social justice.
