Congratulations to the 360+ firms that earned 2023–2024 Mansfield Certification! As other industries backtrack or remain quiet, a record number of newly Mansfield Certified law firms continue to proudly advance inclusive practices and report measurable progress. As Mansfield’s Certification criteria becomes more challenging each year, the program itself continues to grow. This year’s cohort saw a 13% increase from the nearly 320 firms certified the previous year. By participating in Diversity Lab’s year-long structured certification process, these Mansfield Certified US, Canadian, and UK firms are ensuring that all of their qualified talent has a fair and equal opportunity to be considered for advancement into leadership. The Mansfield framework requires that these firms commit to greater transparency and accountability regarding advancement opportunities, producing striking results. Over 75% of the firms have significantly increased diversity in client pitch teams, lateral partner hires, and equity partner promotions. And the number of women equity partners at Mansfield Certified firms is growing at nearly three times the rate of non-Mansfield firms. Stephen Zubiago, the CEO and Managing Partner at Nixon Peabody LLP, has expressed his appreciation for Mansfield: “Our firm has participated in Mansfield Rule Certification since its inception, and we have made significant strides over the past seven years to create positive change through our internal initiatives and industry partnerships. At Nixon Peabody, we believe that diversity of people, backgrounds, and experience leads to exceptional client service and stronger results for our clients and our firm. We are proud of the progress we have made, and remain committed to our continued efforts to build a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive legal profession." These Mansfield firms have taken measurable steps to promote inclusion in their leadership processes. Even in the face of headwinds, they are committed to creating inclusive and equitable workplaces. We are so honored to work with these firms!

When renowned legal recruiter Scott Yaccarino started his search firm, Empire Search Partners, with partners Jonathan Ross and Andrew Regan in 2006, the aim was to create a team of advisors that exist in the space between recruiter and counselor. "My goal in launching Empire, and what I try to impart on everyone that I work with, is the responsibility of empowering the lawyers to make the best and most informed decisions they can make about their career,” Yaccarino explains. Nearly 20 years later, the firm has built deep relationships with leading law firms and lawyers nationwide, with bicoastal offices focusing on world-class partner, associate and in-house recruiting: https://lnkd.in/gQ46PHcg #legalnews #legalrecruiting #lawyers #lawfirms

Our Co-founder and Partner Scott Yaccarino adds his perspective to The American Lawyer's coverage of potential tensions arising from the spread of multitiered partnerships in Big Law. "I don’t think it’s meant as a means of underwriting lateral partner hiring, but a means of being mindful of profitability. And a lot of nonequity partners in 2024 are making more than equity partners were making not all that long ago." #legalindustry #lawfirms #lawfirmleadership #lawfirmlife #biglaw #legalrecruitment #legalcareers #lawcareers
