Cowan, Liebowitz & Latman, P.C. Once Again Achieves Mansfield Certification Plus for Diversity and Inclusion Efforts

10.11.2024

We are proud to announce that our firm has achieved Mansfield Certification Plus for 2023–24!

Mansfield is a year-long, structured certification process that we have committed to since 2021 to ensure all talent at our firm has a fair and equal opportunity to advance into leadership.

The focus is on opening the door wider and ensuring that opportunities for advancement are transparent and inclusive for everyone. By asking that at least 30% of our talent pools considered for leadership roles consist of underrepresented groups and that our advancement processes are transparent, Mansfield creates a level playing field for all.

To achieve our "Plus" designation, we voluntarily provided data to Diversity Lab to show our progress and outcomes of our efforts to broaden talent pools and increase the visibility of our advancement processes. This transparency allows us and Diversity Lab to celebrate progress and to identify areas with continued opportunities for improvement.

Data shows that firms that remain committed and accountable to the Mansfield Certification process year-over-year are making substantial progress in creating inclusive talent practices and diversifying their leadership ranks. We have experienced positive progress at our firm since we joined Mansfield, and we remain committed to taking measurable actions to ensure that our processes are — and remain — inclusive.

We are proud to stand with the firms that have achieved Mansfield Certification to advance a core value in the legal profession: the belief that everyone should have a fair opportunity for career advancement. We believe that by making our workplace one where everyone can succeed, we can better serve our clients and communities.
