By Greg Mansell
Mansell Law LLC has been nationally ranked in the 2027 edition of Best Law Firms, published by Best Lawyers. In New York City, the firm earned a Tier 1 ranking in Litigation (Labor and Employment), a Tier 2 ranking in Employment Law (Individuals) and a Tier 3 ranking in Employment Law (Management). Nationally, Mansell Law is ranked Tier 3 in Litigation (Labor and Employment), and our Columbus, Ohio office also earned a Tier 1 ranking in Litigation (Labor and Employment).
For a firm built to represent executives and employees, these rankings matter. They place Mansell Law among the employment litigation firms recognized across the country and among the top employment firms in New York City.
What the 2027 Best Law Firms Rankings Recognize
To be considered for Best Law Firms, a firm must have at least one attorney recognized in The Best Lawyers in America. The rankings draw on evaluations from clients and from other lawyers, along with information about each firm’s practice. Mansell Law has been recognized by Best Law Firms every year since 2020, and the 2027 rankings are our strongest yet. You can see all of the firm’s current honors on our Awards and Recognition page.
A National Practice Representing Executives and Employees in New York
Mansell Law has represented thousands of executives and employees and has recovered more than $100 million for our clients. Our New York executive employment practice advises senior leaders on executive severance negotiations, executive compensation and equity, employment contracts, non-compete and non-solicitation agreements and executive terminations.
We also represent New York employees and executives in sexual harassment, discrimination, retaliation, wrongful termination and whistleblower matters, and we handle severance review and negotiations for employees at every level. Whether a client needs quiet, strategic negotiation or aggressive litigation, our approach is the same: understand the client’s goals, build the strongest possible position and see it through.
Individual Honors for Greg Mansell and Carrie Dyer
Two of our attorneys were individually recognized in the 2027 edition of The Best Lawyers in America. Greg Mansell, the firm’s Managing Partner, has been recognized by Best Lawyers every year since 2019. Carrie Dyer, Partner, has been recognized every year since 2022. Both are recognized in Employment Law (Individuals), Employment Law (Management) and Litigation (Labor and Employment).
A Perspective Shaped by Both Sides of the Table
While our practice centers on executives and employees, we also counsel several small and mid-size businesses on employment contracts, handbooks, policies and disputes, which is reflected in our Tier 3 ranking in Employment Law (Management) in New York City. That work gives us a highly unique perspective. We know how employers evaluate risk, how decisions get made in human resources and the executive suite, and what moves a company to resolve a claim. We bring that understanding to every negotiation and every case we handle for individuals.
The Whole Team Behind the Ranking
Firm rankings are earned by a firm, not by any one lawyer. Partner Rhiannon Herbert and Of Counsel attorneys Evan Hasbrook and Carolyn Gutowski are a huge part of why Mansell Law is recognized at this level. So are the members of our intake team, who are often the first people a client speaks with during a difficult time, and our legal assistants, who keep every matter moving. You can meet the full team on our attorneys page.
“We are grateful for this recognition, and it belongs to our entire team,” said Greg Mansell. “Consistency is key to our success. Our clients can count on the same preparation, responsiveness and care on every matter, whether we are negotiating severance for a senior executive or standing up for an employee who was treated unfairly.”
