Daryl “Sandy” Chamblee, the newly appointed diversity partner at Steptoe & Johnson, recently did a little schmoozing to help the law firm attract female summer associates.
Chamblee, an African American, was recently appointed the first-ever diversity partner at the law firm. She told The BLT: The Blog of Legal Times that she got an early start on her duties when she learned that five female law students were late in accepting summer associate offers.
Chamblee took each of them to lunch to tell them more about the law firm. Afterward, they all accepted employment offers.
