About Us
Responsible Business
At Crowell, we believe collaboration powers success, and with success comes responsibility to impact our communities, and indeed the world, for good.
We are committed to providing our clients with the highest quality legal services as we create a firm that brings out the best in our people and gives our best to the places we live and work. Our approach to responsible business reflects the heart of what we do and how we practice law.
- We seek to create a thriving community of individuals diverse in every way. Our firm culture prioritizes the well-being of every team member, and we are steadfastly committed to building a more diverse and inclusive While we meet or exceed the national averages in all diversity categories, we are not satisfied with our representation numbers and strive to do better, which is why we commit to doubling the number of lawyers from diverse backgrounds at each level within our firm. Our Racial Equity Task Force ensures accountability for and advancing the cause of racial equity and justice, and we are dedicated to advancing key initiatives that help to keep us moving forward, like allyship training, our sponsorship program, and the Women’s Leadership Initiative.
- We have also developed a Supplier Diversity Program, in an effort to promote a more inclusive marketplace and better support our firm community and clients.
- We are passionate about serving our communities. We provide more than 40,000 hours of pro bono legal services every year, and our community impact efforts help to advance racial equality, youth education, access to the legal profession, and much more as we support underserved communities.
- We believe responsible business starts at the top. That’s why members of our management board undertake meaningful pro bono assignments, help to lead critical DEI and professional development programs, and give back to the legal community through public service positions that advance the profession.
- We are working to reduce our environmental impact and inspire our team members to live more sustainable lifestyles. As part of our ongoing commitment to our ESG principles, we are a proud member of the Legal Sustainability Network, follow sustainable procurement guidelines, and provide resources to help attorneys and professional staff explore new ways to incorporate sustainable best practices at work and at home.
Crowell’s commitment to responsible business is at the heart of everything we do because it reflects who we are.
