Bodman PLC has been awarded Mansfield Rule 6.0 Certification Plus status, the highest level of designation in the Mansfield program, after completing a rigorous 12-month certification process in collaboration with Diversity Lab.
Last year, Bodman joined as a participating law firm in the program. Mansfield has a goal to increase diversity in leadership through a data-driven method that embeds accountability, transparency, and knowledge sharing into law firm talent attraction, retention, and promotion practices.
Now entering its seventh rendition, the Mansfield Rule program has become the standard by which law firms track and certify that they have considered at least 30 percent women, lawyers from underrepresented racial/ethnic groups, lawyers with disabilities, and LGBTQ+ lawyers for top leadership roles, senior-level lateral hiring, promotions into the equity partnership, and participation in client pitch meetings.
Mansfield Certification Plus status indicates that, in addition to meeting or exceeding the baseline certification requirements, firms have at least 30 percent underrepresented lawyers in a notable number of their current leadership roles.
