Kramer Levin is pleased to announce that the firm has obtained Diversity Lab’s Mansfield Rule 5.0 certification and is continuing its participation by seeking the newest certification level, Mansfield Rule 6.0. Launched in 2017, the goal of the Mansfield Rule is to boost the representation of diverse attorneys in law firm leadership by broadening the pool of candidates considered for those opportunities.
To be certified for Mansfield Rule 5.0, participating law firms must, among other requirements, commit to considering at least 30% women, underrepresented racial and ethnic attorneys, LGBTQ+ attorneys and attorneys with disabilities for leadership roles, as well as including at least the same amount in critical pipeline activities and producing transparent leadership role descriptions.
