Embedded in our firm from day one is an ambitious responsibility and sustainability strategy to drive positive change throughout the industry.
In everything we do, we challenge the status quo; when it comes to the environmental and societal impacts we believe our strategic approach is a blueprint for the firm of the future. Responsibility and sustainability, redefined.
We foster diversity, inclusion and collaboration in everything we do. That’s why we pledge to achieve diversity parity, reflective of wider societal composition, by 2025.
We start out as a majority female firm, with significant representations of ethnic minority background and LGBTQ+ colleagues. But we don’t rest on our laurels.
Headed by our diversity lead, we will adapt our recruitment and people management processes to further drive diversity and champion the agenda in the industry.
We are deeply engaged with the communities we live and work in. That’s why we pledge to increase our community support every year to 5% of our resources by 2025.
We start out with strong pro bono partnerships, such as Client Earth, that have a real impact on the world around us.
Headed by our pro bono lead, we will expand our skilled and non-skilled volunteering to enable everyone to dedicate time to social engagement.
We recognize that climate change is one of the biggest challenges of our time and that we all have a contribution to make. That’s why we pledge to be carbon neutral by 2025.
We start out with an office in London rated BREAAM Excellent to drive down our energy, water and waste impact over time.
Headed by our environment lead, we will partner with our clients and suppliers to champion a greener industry through signing up to the Green Litigation and Arbitration pledge.
We set up a Responsibility & Sustainability Committee that oversees our performance on this strategy. It consists of partners, lawyers, associates and staff that all lead in their work to drive positive change.
The Committee reports to the partnership on progress and is committed to regularly sharing updates internally and externally to keep everyone informed.
