DWL aims to support those who self-identify as women, non binary and gender diverse through all stages of their legal studies and differing careers and who also self-identify as being from one or more of the following underrepresented backgrounds: • culturally and linguistically diverse persons; • Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander persons; • LGBTQI+ persons; • people living with a disability; • people who are or have experienced socioeconomic disadvantage; and • people with caring responsibilities, (together, Diverse Women). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e489ead6b594c4c6c9a53a2/1583578919771-K0Z6BR1IP8PWAT2A0Q12/72320516_1472860796213490_2205828437958983680_n.jpg Our Mission - We champion diversity in the law Founded in 2019 by Keerthi Ravi, Diverse Women in Law (DWL), seeks to empower Diverse Women by providing meaningful structural enablers, such as mentoring, networking, and awareness-raising initiatives, that proactively enlists industry stakeholder engagement. Our initiatives promote the empowerment of Diverse Women lawyers through networking, targeted mentoring and professional development opportunities in partnership with industry stakeholders. Some of our key initiative's include: law student engagement through university roadshows providing networking opportunities such as the IP&STEM Networking Event our targeted networking and mentoring programs for law students and lawyers professional development and job application assistance DWL is focused on improving diversity at all stages of the talent pipeline including entry level, mid-level career lawyers and senior members of the legal profession.

Diversity purports an unparalleled competitive advantage for the legal profession, as organisations are statistically proven to generate higher profits, engage and retain their staff whilst formulating innovative solutions. While representation of women in law has increased considerably over the last two decades, with women comprising 54% of the profession, Diverse Women remain largely underrepresented. In the Law Society of New South Wales report, ‘Diversity and Inclusion in the Legal Profession: The Business Case’, it states: ‘Diversity and inclusion are of increasing importance for the legal profession. Australian society is culturally and socially diverse and this is reflected in both the demographics of legal practitioners and their clients.’ Yet there is a disparity between this representation of Australian society and the legal profession. For example: In 2018, only 1.2% of practising certificate holders in New South Wales identified as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander (0.7% across Australia). Less than 2% of barristers identify as Asian-Australian. Only two law firms were recognised as ‘gold employers’ in the 2019 Australian Workplace Equality Index that looks specifically at LGBTQ workplace inclusion Statistics of LGBTQ+ representation in law is scarce 25% of law graduates identify as being from an Asian background, but this drops to less than 8% at partner level; .6% of the bar; and 0.8% of the judiciary. Despite Australia’s diverse makeup, Diverse Women remain underrepresented in the legal profession, with a lack of statistics around their representation in the workforce.

DWL recognises the importance of supportive voices outside of Diverse Women to effect meaningful dialogue and change. DWL is proud to feature allies who champion DWL’s mission amongst its growing membership (DWL Ally / DWL Allies). DWL Allies have supported DWL through various means such as providing: Corporate sponsorship Mentorship to Diverse Women In-kind contributions such as event hosting Speaking engagements at DWL events Collaborating on DWL projects To become a DWL Ally, DWL invites you to complete the membership form and contact us if you would like to find out about the opportunities available for you to assist in furthering DWL’s mission. https://www.diversewomeninlaw.com.au/teamm daily 0.75 2025-11-28

In my placement, I was given the opportunity to be paired with Her Honour Judge Culver of the District Court. During the placement, I shadowed Judge Culver in an array of different court hearings ranging from severity appeals to trials with a jury and also judge alone trials. This allowed me to oversee court procedures, observe court etiquette and understand the manner in which legal practitioners execute their submissions. One significant highlight included the opportunity to join Judge Culver on the bench during the severity appeals and observe the decision-making process that was undertaken. This enabled me to observe the courtroom from a different atmosphere and obtain an intricate understanding of exercising a 'judicial mind' during her Honour's reasons. Whilst my experience within the courtroom enhanced my understanding of court procedures, a true highlight were the moments spent outside the courtroom. This provided me a “behind-the scenes” experience where I was able to join Judge Culver in her chambers and discuss the nature of the legal profession, including learning about different jurisdictions and the multitude of roles prevalent within the industry. Overall, the opportunity to shadow and be mentored by Judge Culver has greatly enhanced my perception about the legal profession by providing me a practical glimpse into the role of a legal practitioner and has fuelled my ambition to learn, adapt and exercise my potential. I hope my experience demonstrates that the utility of this opportunity will be of functional merit for other diverse women studying law seeking to learn about the nature of the industry and legal professionalism. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e489ead6b594c4c6c9a53a2/1595746502269-9UIPBCYVMLS9M95MBA1Q/WSU%2Bpic.jpg Past Events -

What stood out to me most about this event was its practicality, similar to the previous cover letter and resume workshops. While it is good to hear generic advice, to actually see examples of candidates responding to other questions and hear the panel’s thoughts were incredibly useful. I also appreciated that we were hearing insights directly from recruitment at firms we have applied to. It was an excellent introduction to interviewing skills and I feel better equipped to tackle interviews. I would love to see a second installment of the event, looking at further questions and perhaps with more engagement with the audience’s questions. Thank you so much to DWL and the panel!” - Student Attendee
