Our diversity efforts have been recognized nationally and locally.

Since January 1, 2003, we more than tripled the number of lawyers of color at Miles & Stockbridge. In the past number of years, women and minorities have comprised 40-50% of our summer associate classes. Miles & Stockbridge has received consistently high marks as an overall place to work in The American Lawyer Surveys of Midlevel and Summer Associates of major national law firms, including the No. 1 ranking by our Summer Associates in 2005 and the No. 2 ranking by our Midlevel Associates in 2004 and 2008.

Our midlevel lawyers and our summer associates have given us top rankings in categories such as: dedication to diversity; training and guidance; opportunities to work with partners; confidence in the firm's leadership; collegiality; and family-friendliness. In another survey, Miles & Stockbridge ranked among the Top 100 Law Firms for Diversity and for Women by The American Lawyer's MultiCultural Law Magazine, the magazine for diversity in the legal profession.

We are proud of our recent successes, but we are not satisfied. As embodied in The Miles Way, we strive every day to win, for our clients and for each other. We recognize that winning means we can always do more to create and sustain meaningful, long-term diversity at Miles & Stockbridge. Our team accepts the challenge, and we welcome others to join us.
