MG+M The Law Firm (MG+M) is pleased to announce that the firm has achieved Mansfield Rule 5.0 Certification Plus after completing Diversity Lab’s 12-month certification process. This is the third consecutive year the firm has received Mansfield Rule Certification, all three times at the Plus level, which is a result of the firm exceeding the requirements for certification.

The goal of the Mansfield Rule is to boost the representation of diverse lawyers—including women, lawyers of color, LGBTQ+ lawyers and lawyers with disabilities—by broadening the pool of candidates considered for and appointed to leadership and governance roles, equity partner promotions, formal client pitch opportunities and senior lateral positions.

“Promoting diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB) is a core value at MG+M, and we are honored that Diversity Lab has recognized the hard work that the MG+M community has invested in recruiting, developing and promoting diverse lawyers,” says Managing Partner and Chief Diversity Officer Amaryah Bocchino. “Obtaining this certification for the third consecutive year further demonstrates our commitment to creating a culture that values and respects the perspectives of every member of our firm.”  

Mansfield Rule certification is just one step in MG+M’s ongoing efforts to recruit and advance the hiring, development and promotion of diverse lawyers. Learn more about MG+M’s DEIB program.
