Bracewell and its managing partner have pledged their commitment to dismantling systemic barriers that prevent underrepresented lawyers from achieving the highest levels of leadership within the legal industry.
In Our Own Words
Quite simply, Bracewell walks the talk. When it says it values its people, it shows it. When it says it is committed to diversity and inclusion, it shows it too.
Camille M. Ng, Associate
Bracewell is special to me because I have the liberty to bring my entire self to work every day and know that I will be supported and valued for who I am.
Levi Stoneking, Associate
Bracewell is special because everyone within the firm makes it a point to take their work extremely seriously but does not force themselves to personally be taken with the same seriousness.

The organization aims to provide mentorship, in-school learning, summer opportunities and scholarships to low-income Houston area students to ensure that they have access to post-secondary education and employment.
