After leading federal and state lobbying efforts to legalize the crop, and founding and serving as General Counsel to the U.S Hemp Roundtable — the industry’s leading national business advocacy organization — we’ve emerged as the leading national full-service law firm representing the industry. Not only have our attorneys been there since the beginning of the hemp resurgence and the birth of CBD, but we’ve done so in a geographical footprint overlapping with what many industry professionals see as the epicenter for hemp seed and crop production. Visit our Hemp Industry Team page to learn more.
Frost Brown Todd is one of a select group of U.S. law firms to achieve Mansfield Rule Certification, a rigorous 12-month benchmarking program that requires participating firms to consider at least 30% women, lawyers of color, lawyers with disabilities and/or LGBTQ+ lawyers for 70 percent or more of the firm’s leadership roles, committees and other qualifying activities during the review period.
Frost Brown Todd has also signed on to participate in the next iteration of the program, Mansfield 4.0, running from Summer 2020-2021. As part of the program, the firm has committed to participating in three-month, six-month and annual check-in surveys and data collection requests, while also engaging in community building and knowledge sharing with other participating firms.
