One of the defining strengths of GRSM is the diverse range of backgrounds and perspectives across our firm. Heritage months provide an opportunity to recognize the history, contributions, and experiences of the communities that shape our country. In May, we recognize Jewish American Heritage Month and celebrate our colleagues’ culture, accomplishments, and diversity.   GRSM's Jewish Affinity Group serves as a forum for attorneys and allies to connect, share experiences, and strengthen relationships across the firm. This group plays a vital role in promoting understanding, respect, and dialogue, helping us to continue building connections, strengthening our firm’s culture, and creating an environment that values the varied experiences that shape who we are as individuals and professionals.

GRSM proudly celebrates Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month to recognize the innovation, strength, and pioneering spirit of individuals of AANHPI heritage who have shaped U.S. history. The month of May is a powerful reminder of the contributions by AANHPI communities throughout the history of our country, with the first Japanese immigrants arriving on May 7, 1843, and the first transcontinental railroad in the United States being completed on May 10, 1869, with significant contributions from Chinese pioneers. In celebrating AANHPI Heritage Month, we recognize our firm’s leaders of AANHPI heritage at all levels who continuously approach modern challenges with curiosity, invent creative solutions, and revolutionize legal practices. The firm’s Asian American Pacific Islander and South Asian Affinity Groups, which are open to all attorneys, offer an inclusive platform for discussions and action through professional development, mentorship, and education to promote innovation and collaboration across the GRSM community.
