Community Responsibility
Orrick lawyers and professional staff share a strong commitment and responsibility to enhance the communities in which they live and work. Through a combination of pro bono legal services, financial contributions and volunteerism, the firm supports strategies that bring services to those who would not otherwise have access. Last year Orrick
supported more than 200 community
service organizations. Because of this dedication, Orrick considers charitable requests from our lawyers and staff only.
Community Involvement
Orrick fosters community involvement efforts at the local office level as well as firmwide. The Community Responsibility Committee and professional staff oversee these efforts, ensuring maximum impact in our three designated areas of emphasis:
- Education
- Legal Services
- Arts
By focusing on these areas, Orrick lawyers and staff support partnerships like these:
 |
