"We are proud of the work that the firm has done under Michelle's leadership," said Miller Canfield CEO Megan Norris. "She is relentless in her efforts to create actionable, measurable and results-driven initiatives that lead to meaningful change in our firm and in the business community."
Crockett's achievements in DEI include leading the firm to be included in the first class of major law firms nationwide to pilot the Mansfield Rule, which requires the firm to affirmatively consider a candidate pool that includes 30 percent women, LGBTQ, attorneys of color and attorneys with disabilities when making hiring and promotion decisions. Miller Canfield is also one of just 24 firms nationwide to earn the Mansfield Certified Plus designation three years in a row by demonstrating diverse representation in firm leadership roles.
