Kimberly Zirkle serves as member of LFAA SRLI Banking Working Group

Moore & Van Allen (MVA) Financial Services Member Kimberly Zirkle has taken an active role within the LFAA serving within the organization’s Systemic Racism Legal Inventory (SRLI) Banking Working Group. The group examines the practices and habits of banking and financial institutions with an eye towards determining how best to dismantle those elements that have the effect of perpetuating racial inequity. Each of the LFAA SRLI working groups – composed of LFAA Firm volunteers – focuses on the intersection of racial equity and a substantive area of the law.

MVA is one of almost 300 law firms that have joined the Law Firm Antiracism Alliance (LFAA). LFAA is a coalition of firms that will work with other organizations that are uniting to identify and dismantle systemic racism in the law and in government institutions. The alliance's charter states its purpose as seeking to "leverage the resources of the private bar to amplify the voices of communities and individuals oppressed by racism, to better use the law as a vehicle for change that benefits communities of color and to promote racial equity in the law and in government institutions."
