The Disabled Lawyers Network is dedicated to promoting and supporting equality, diversity and inclusion (ED&I) within the legal profession with a focus on disability.
Our mission is to create a more inclusive and supportive legal profession for disabled lawyers. We strive to promote the rights and interests of disabled lawyers and to advocate for equal opportunities and treatment.
We believe that everyone has the right to succeed and thrive in their career, regardless of their disability. Through education, resources, and support, we aim to empower our members to achieve their goals and to create positive change in the legal profession.
The network intends to:
- provide support for students and those looking to enter the profession;
- provide support for those already working within the legal profession (at all levels);
- encourage and assist in making the legal profession accessible, inclusive and welcoming for disabled lawyers; and
- raise awareness and understanding of disabilities and health conditions.
