For the past three years, Bank of America’s Legal Department has met our spend initiative goals with minority and women-owned firms. In order to achieve these goals, the DIBC has been looking for opportunities to work more closely with the national organization NAMWOLF (National Association of Minority & Women Owned Law Firms) and retain more diverse vendors and law firms. The mission of NAMWOLF is to “promote diversity in the legal profession by fostering successful relationships among preeminent minority and women-owned law firms and private/public entities.”
