Franke Schultz & Mullen, P.C. is an equal opportunity employer and is firmly committed to the hiring and promotion of women and racial minorities. We recognize not only the benefit that diverse individuals have on our firm culture, but also the benefit their perspectives have on the representation of our clients. Our commitment to diversity is embodied in the firm’s policies, practices, beliefs and benefits. We are a participant in and provide financial support to local diversity initiatives including the Kansas City Metropolitan Bar Association Diversity Program. We participate and sponsor job fairs designed to attract women and ethnically diverse candidates such as the annual Heartland Diversity Law Job Fair. The firm is committed to its diversity efforts and the recognition and promotion of its minority and women members. As an example, the firm supports our partner, Nikki Cannezzaro’s service as a member of the Board of Directors of the Association for Women Lawyers including making financial contributions to the organization as well as sponsorship of its events. The firm remains focused on developing new ways to recruit, retain and foster the professional development of women and minorities.
