law firm diversity database
MCCA supports corporate America’s leaders in doing better to make companies more inclusive. And we believe lawyers are uniquely positioned to inspire and encourage that progress. We also know data collection and transparency are a critical first step towards real change—because from transparency springs accountability, and from accountability comes change. With this is mind, we created a new Law Firm Diversity Database that will provide members with access to data and trend analytics about diversity across America’s law firms—including diversity of race and ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability status.
This new Law Firm Diversity Database is possible thanks to the law firms who participate each year’s Law Firm Diversity Survey, as well as the firms and corporate counsel advisory groups who have worked closely with us since 2004 to design and grow our annual Law Firm Diversity Survey. We thank all our partners for their commitment to the power of data to inform change.

U.S. LAW FIRM DIVERSITY SURVEY
Our annual U.S. Law Firm Diversity Survey was developed in partnership with general counsel in response to the 2004 Chief Legal Officers’ Call to Action, a longstanding commitment made by hundreds of committed general counsels who wanted to increase diversity in the legal profession and “demonstrate to law firms that it is imperative for them to distinguish themselves in the area of diversity in order to transact business with companies that view diversity, equity and inclusion as a way of life.”
GLOBAL LAW FIRM DIVERSITY SURVEY
MCCA and Nokia together launched the Global Law Firm Diversity Survey, a first-of-its-kind international survey designed to measure how well law firms hire and promote attorneys over time and hold them accountable. The Global Survey comes at a time when business operations have become increasingly international and companies across the world are moving from awareness to action in their approach to DEI.
MCCA CORPORATE DEMOGRAPHIC SURVEY
Since 1997, we have published industry-leading demographic information about the profession best equipped to spearhead greater diversity in corporate America: lawyers. Our data-driven approach holds companies and firms accountable—and illuminates opportunities for growth. MCCA’s Corporate Demographic Survey is designed to measure how well corporate legal departments hire, retain, and promote attorneys over time and hold them accountable.
Data has been the foundation of MCCA’s work since we began in the mid-90s, and our evidenced-based approach to accelerating change remains central to everything we do. Now, as then, MCCA provides unparalleled research and data to encourage transparency and help corporate America pursue concrete change.
