Each year Law360 hosts a Minority Powerbrokers Q&A series, focusing on racial and ethnic diversity in the legal industry. This special edition provides minority attorneys the opportunity to speak out on a range of topics including challenges they've faced, advice for other lawyers of color and thoughts behind increasing diversity in the industry. This year, Partner Danielle Conley participated in the Q&A.
