Diversity Lab is a professional services organization based in Los Angeles that partners with law firms and legal departments around the world to foster fair, equitable, and inclusive workplaces. It seeks to reduce bias in talent systems by embedding structure, accountability, and transparency, drawing on data, behavioral science, and design thinking to pilot experimental ideas with a network of more than 300 leading law firms and legal departments across the United States and beyond. Its work spans initiatives such as the OnRamp Fellowship, which supports lawyers returning to practice after a career pause, and the Women in Law Hackathon and Diversity in Law Hackathon series. The Mansfield Rule, launched in 2017, has grown to involve more than 200 firms and now includes versions for midsize firms and legal departments as well as expansion into the UK. In 2023, WilmerHale partnered with Diversity Lab to advance disability inclusion.
