What is Black Esquire?
Black Esquire provides opportunities and resources to help current and future BIPOC legal professionals achieve the level of success they deserve.
Our mission is to increase the quantity and quality of BlPOC legal professionals to match or surpass their representation in the general population.
Currently, 85% of lawyers in the U.S. are Caucasian, while only 5% of lawyers in the U.S. are African-American or Hispanic. 76.6% of the U.S. population is Caucasian, while 13.4 % is Black or African-American, and 18.1% are Hispanic. It is clear that the lawyers of color are underrepresented.

I am a Black female lawyer, so I know first-hand that the “Black Esquire Experience” is different. I created Black Esquire to share my experiences with people like me. People who struggled to overcome obstacles in their lives. Through mentorship, education, and support, Black Esquire will help you succeed.
Our model focuses on collective success. We use education, mentorship, and networking opportunities to foster strong and lasting connections.
