Cassels Achieves Mansfield Certification Plus!

10/16/2023

Cassels is proud to announce that our firm has achieved Mansfield Certification Plus!

Mansfield Certification Plus, awarded by Diversity Lab, measures the structural changes and steps we have taken over the past year to ensure our paths to leadership – including lateral hiring, client pitch teams, promotions, appointments, and more – are open and transparent to all qualified lawyers.

The “Plus” designation indicates that we’ve not only taken steps to increase inclusivity in leadership, but we’ve also made measured progress in doing so. Only half of the Certified firms achieved this honor this year.

We’ve undergone this effort alongside other top-tier firms and with the support of our clients as well as the legal departments that are also participating in Mansfield. Like them, we remain dedicated to opening the door wider to all qualified lawyers through the ups and downs of market fluctuations and the ebb and flow of political discourse. We thank everyone who has partnered with us to build a more inclusive legal field. There’s more to do, of course, so we look forward to our continued collaboration with you all.
