Daria Gossett Named a Leadership Council on Legal Diversity Pathfinder

March 23, 2023


Downey Brand is pleased to announce that Daria Gossett has been named a 2023 Leadership Council on Legal Diversity (LCLD) Pathfinder. A multifaceted seven month-long program, the Pathfinder initiative provides participants with opportunities to learn from career development experts and top leaders in the legal profession in the areas of foundational leadership and relationship-building.

“Developing more women for leadership roles is crucial for the legal profession,” said managing partner Janlynn Fleener. “I’m excited for Daria to participate in LCLD, and I look forward to her many accomplishments.”

The Pathfinder program, which serves as a supplement to training initiatives already in place at LCLD-Member corporations and law firms, provides participants with practical tools for developing and leveraging internal professional networks, cultivating leadership skills, and honing career development strategies. A senior associate and litigation attorney at Downey Brand, Daria’s practice encompasses all aspects of employment litigation and counseling, including everything from pre-lawsuit demands to appeals.

“LCLD provides a unique opportunity to connect with diverse lawyers across the country. I am looking forward to building new relationships in the legal community and applying the leadership skills LCLD teaches at Downey Brand,” Daria said.

This marks the second year in which a Downey Brand attorney has been nominated and selected for LCLD’s Pathfinder program, following Tyler Horn’s selection last year. To learn more about LCLD, we you encourage you to visit its website.
