Statement on the Death of George Floyd and the Ensuing Protests

Steptoe stands with those committed to help end systemic and overt racism in our society. Recognizing that many of us cannot easily imagine or fully experience the fear, exhaustion, and frustration that people of color feel every day, we will attempt to listen well to your voices, and respond not just with words of comfort, but also with action. 

Lawyers have a special responsibility to redress injustice and unfairness, and there is much more we can do to ensure justice and fairness. We can make the world a better place. We hear you and we will act.
