Because . . .
Access to justice is a basic human right.
The rule of law is fundamental to equality, justice, prosperity and peace.
Outstanding organizations that serve society’s needs deserve the best legal advice.
These three tenets guide our first truly global pro bono practice, formed in 2010 under the leadership of Ian Forrester, QC. Our Firm has a long history of pro bono and is one of the largest providers of pro bono legal services in the world. With the formation of our global practice, we place pro bono work on par with our commercial practices in the leadership, focus and management that we bring to bear.
