Our actions remain closely aligned with the aspirations of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), guiding our efforts to create positive impact.

Our commitment to making a meaningful impact extends beyond our own operations. Clients describe us as great listeners, solution builders and lateral thinkers. That's what it means to be client intelligent. In that spirit, we take our time to understand how we can better support clients and provide quality legal advice that that helps them to meet their EDG challenges and serves and advances their own ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) journeys.

This client-focused approach reflects our Core Values to put our clients' interests first and use knowledge and innovation to deliver client solutions.

Our people are at the core of our responsible business practices. That’s why we are committed to fostering an inclusive culture where every individual feels valued, respected, and empowered to thrive and contribute their best. Enabling everyone to reach their full potential reflects our Core Values to treat our colleagues as we do our best clients and bring a diversity and inclusion lens to every aspect of our work and culture.

We share our professional skills on a pro bono basis and commit to community engagement and philanthropic giving that makes a real and lasting difference – we refer to our efforts in this space as Community Impact. This commitment is deeply rooted in our Core Value to make a positive contribution to our communities and societies.

We continue to focus on increasing our pro bono involvement and hours, encouraging all our lawyers to get involved in our offices across the globe.

We are also proud to collaborate with clients on pro bono projects and social mobility programs and to work on first-of-a-kind pro bono matters that impact the lives of those suffering social injustice.

We ensure our activities contribute to a more sustainable society, reflecting our Core Values.

We are continuing to identify activities in our operational footprint that contribute to environmental damage. Our main UK LLP, which includes our offices in Australia, Belgium, Singapore, the UAE and the UK, has now set near and long term targets, which have been verified by the Science Based Target initiative..

We are actively engaging with our suppliers to better understand their environmental journeys, with the aim of partnering with them to reduce our Scope 3 emissions. At the same time, we are improving the collection and quality of our data to enable more accurate carbon emissions reporting. 

We are also committed to adopting wider environmental initiatives as part of a holistic approach to understanding and reducing our overall environmental impact.
