The Mansfield Rule is named for Arabella Mansfield, the first woman admitted to practice law in the United States.

The Mansfield Rule initiative also includes a commitment by Stark & Stark to be transparent in our internal governance, particularly with our selection guidelines and job descriptions for firm management roles and committees.
