Consistent with our long-held view that excellence and creativity arise from many sources, diversity is a bedrock principle at Cravath. We embrace the importance of recruiting and retaining outstanding lawyers from different backgrounds, and we are committed to promoting diversity at all levels. There is no Cravath “type.” Our lawyers come from a wide range of backgrounds, yet all share important qualities—intelligence, creativity, work ethic and a desire to excel.
