Hunton US Attorneys Celebrate 16th Consecutive Year of 100% Pro Bono Participation
Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP is pleased to announce that for the 16th consecutive year, 100% of its full-time U.S. lawyers participated in pro bono projects. Globally, the firm contributed 48,285 total pro bono hours, donated by more than 800 attorneys and staff around the world, during the recent fiscal year ending on March 31.
“We are proud to serve our local communities and give back in meaningful ways,” said Hunton managing partner Sam Danon. “Pro bono service is a core value of the firm, and this achievement of 100% participation is evidence of our efforts to provide equal access to legal representation and justice for those in need.”
Hunton has prioritized a commitment to providing pro bono services since its founding in 1901. The firm encourages individual dedication to providing legal representation to those in need within our communities, whether it is through local projects or partnerships with clients. As evidence of the firm’s emphasis on and commitment to pro bono, associates and paralegals receive billable hour credits for up to 100 hours of pro bono time. Additionally, this year marks 32 continuous years of meeting or exceeding the Pro Bono Institute's Law Firm Pro Bono Challenge of donating at least three percent of its annual billable hours to pro bono service.
