- Mansfield Plus Certification
Miller Canfield is the first Michigan-based firm to earn Mansfield Plus Certification, which is awarded to law firms that meet high standards for significant representation of women and minority attorneys in firm leadership roles. To earn Mansfield Certified status, firms must must consider at least 30 percent historically underrepresented lawyers—women, attorneys of color, LGBTQ attorneys and attorneys with disabilities— when hiring and making promotion decisions to leadership roles such as equity partnership, and more. Firms that not only consider, but also achieve, 30% representation in key leadership roles, are awarded Certification Plus status. Miller Canfield is one of only 39 firms nationwide to have held Mansfield certification for five years in a row.
