Glad that there is a thread to have a civil discussion around this topic because I think diversity is incredibly important in any profession, including law. I am a visibly disabled candidate. I have to admit that in the process of applying to firms over the past years, I have sometimes become frustrated with the recruitment process for disability reasons or the fact that I have yet to meet a lawyer with the same disability as myself. I deeply appreciate those places that genuinely make an effort to prevent (sub)conscious bias around disability and may even offer Disability Open Days etc.. But unfortunately I had to learn that this is not the same across all firms. However, I remain hopeful for the future. I know it is difficult to drive change, but I am convinced that change will continue to transform firms in this area  🤞
