Drummond Miller LLP

Our Commitment to Diversity at Drummond Miller

Our people are our strongest asset at Drummond Miller LLP. We are proud of the diversity of our firm. We strive to support each individual to the best of our ability. We believe that understanding and embracing our differences allows us to bring out the best in everyone. We are a stronger organisation because of our diversity. This is better for both our staff and clients.

We are committed to doing all we can to improve the Drummond Miller experience for everyone. Increasing diversity among those entering the legal profession is essential to the success of the sector, and we are determined to be at the heart of that progress.

In 2025, as part of our strategy to further strengthen diversity within our firm and the legal profession as a whole, we committed to sponsoring the Diversity+ Law Academy. Diversity+ are one of Scotland’s leading diversity and inclusion consultancies and is dedicated to empowering underrepresented law students through education, mentoring, and career development.

As a firm deeply rooted in values of equality and inclusion, we understand the importance of investing in projects that drive true change and generate fair opportunities for all.

Our agreement to sponsor the Diversity+ Law Academy reflects our ongoing commitment to supporting diversity both within the legal profession and across wider society.

We welcome greater diversity and are committed to continually educating ourselves.

In addition, Drummond Miller is committed to providing pro bono legal advice to those most in need, regardless of their situation.

Our immigration department has a long history of running surgeries in collaboration with community groups where people can seek much-needed legal advice, such as at the Pakistan Society of Edinburgh and the Fife Arabic Society. Each month we also provide a free legal surgery at Shakti Women’s Aid, where we advise black minority ethnic women on their immigration status in cases where there has been relationship breakdown due to domestic abuse.

Our immigration team has travelled across Scotland – from the Central Belt to the Highlands and Islands – speaking at seminars on the rights of EEA nationals and their family members to remain in the UK. These events have been delivered as part of the EU Citizens’ Rights Project Scotland.

Our family law team runs a free drop in service from our offices every fortnight to advise individuals on matters such as separation, divorce and contact.

Throughout the year we also support charitable causes with partners and staff raising money through fundraising events.

This work is at the heart of what we do – we believe no one should be deprived of legal advice or assistance, no matter the position they are in.
