The firm is a member of the New Jersey Law Firm Group, which is comprised of New Jersey Law firms, corporate legal departments, governmental agencies and public interest organizations that recognize the importance and advantages of diversity in not only serving the needs of clients but also in enhancing the legitimacy and public image of the legal profession. Each year, this organization provides a fellowship, a job fair, mentor programs and roundtable discussions at each of New Jersey’s law schools to demystify the recruitment process and to encourage participation in the groups programs.

Committed to diversity issues since its very inception, firm founder James Cooper was a member of President Kennedy’s Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights, having litigated civil rights cases in Mississippi in 1966. One of our attorneys was selected as a Kellogg’s Law Fellow for the NAACP Office of General Counsel, where she worked on national civil rights issues and participated in discussion panels throughout the country. We are proud to say that one of our attorneys was the first woman president of the Atlantic County Bar Association.
