Two suggestions:
First, it could be that the question relates to corporate preferred provider
lists, such as duPont's, which often require that law firms demonstrate a
committment to diversity as one criterion for inclusion on the list.
Second, I'm not personally aware of such a list beyond what I referenced in
my first suggestion, but if such a thing does exist, the Minority Corporate
Counsel Association (202-371-5908) would know. I would give them a call.

Subject: Approval list for law firms
Date: Wed, 19 Jan 2005 15:17:00 -0600
From: "Frances Schach" <fschach@ArmstrongTeasdale.com>
To: <law-lib@ucdavis.edu>
Does anyone know if such an approval list exists that a law firm could
put their name on which shows that they have diversity requirements? The
question I received specifically asks about a "corporate approval list".
I did see that Martindale Hubbell has a place to check on their Law
Firm search page if interested in only in firms that have diversity
profiles.
I would appreciate any help. Thank you.
