We are excited to share that Kegler Brown has achieved Mansfield Certification Plus for 2024–2025!

Mansfield is a rigorous, year-long certification process designed to ensure that leadership opportunities are accessible and equitable for all talent. Since joining the initiative in 2022, we have remained committed to creating transparent and inclusive pathways for advancement. The Mansfield framework asks firms to consider at least 30% historically underrepresented lawyers in candidate pools for leadership roles and to make promotion processes clear and fair.

Earning the Plus designation means we went beyond the baseline requirements by voluntarily sharing data with Diversity Lab to demonstrate measurable progress in broadening talent pools and increasing transparency. This accountability helps us celebrate successes while identifying areas for continued improvement.

Firms that consistently engage in the Mansfield process are seeing real change in leadership diversity—and we are proud to be part of that progress. Our commitment to these principles strengthens our ability to serve clients and communities with insight and integrity.

We join more than 360 firms nationwide in advancing a core value of the legal profession: ensuring fair and equal access to leadership opportunities. By continuing to prioritize inclusivity, we aim to make our workplace—and our profession—stronger.
