Pro bono
You'll find we are a committed firm...
Garrigues pledges to make lasting improvements to society through a range of projects. These take the form of applied legal research, the performance of community outreach initiatives, the provision of pro bono legal and tax advisory services to charitable, welfare, cultural and educational organizations that do not have the resources to access high quality legal services, etc. Our internal communication channel, Rincón Social/ Social Corner, located on the intranet, shares news of the exploits of colleagues with links to various charities and worthy causes, proposes initiatives our people can participate in and explains the projects on which the firm collaborates.Garrigues has given me the opportunity to participate in many pro bono activities, enabling me to use the knowledge I have acquired as a lawyer to serve the legal needs, through non-profit entities, of the most disadvantaged groups in society and those with fewer financial resources. The Garrigues pro bono program is fundamental in order to raise awareness at the firm and among its lawyers and to contribute to a fairer society for all, not just the firm’s clientsAs a professional, pro bono activities clearly satisfy and fulfill personal interests different from the work typical of a major law firm, fostering my own personal and professional development from a different perspective, expanding my relationship capital and, above all, enhancing my training by exposing me to real life situations that we don’t see in our daily lives.I feel lucky to form part of a law firm that cares about helping improve our society.”
