Diversity and inclusion
The Firm
A Leading Firm
Creating opportunities to grow and develop professionally and personally
In all our areas, departments, divisions and sectors, we seek all our members to demonstrate and exploit their potential without labels or restrictions. Maintaining a healthy work environment free of prejudice is one of our drivers to achieve the development of our work and, therefore, that of all the members of the firm.
We believe that diversity and inclusion is not only beneficial for our team, but also for their personal environment and that of their families, our clients and society in general.
We want to continue being pioneers in the development of Diversity and Inclusion initiatives in the Mexican legal services market, and that our role not only stands out for the role we play, but also has tangible results in our environment.
We want to continue being different from others. The differences and diversity of backgrounds contribute to an environment of solidarity and understanding that makes us all better. We see this reflected in our team, where we always think about having the best talent, seeking to incorporate Diversity and Inclusion in all our daily activities, challenging ourselves and thereby finding the best solutions for our clients.
Proudly, in recent months and today more than ever, Gonzalez Calvillo and his collaborators have been part of numerous initiatives. Hand in hand with multiple organizations with whom we have cultivated ties – and who, like us, believe and share the vision where D&I plays a fundamental role not only in the creation of value propositions, but also in opportunities for growth and professional and personal development, without distinction of gender, sexual identity and orientation, race or ethnicity, age, religion, marital or family status, neurotypicality or physical abilities.
