Hogan Lovells, a prominent law firm, acted pro bono in 2023, representing two former British soldiers who were serving in the Ukrainian military and are pressing war crime charges against the Russian Federation. Shaun Pinner and Aiden Aslin are seeking compensation for physical and psychological torture endured during the siege of Mariupol. This humanitarian action by Hogan Lovells took place during a period when the pro bono industry was leaning more towards domestic scenarios.
In addition to this case, Hogan Lovells continues its engagement in cultural protection, assistance to refugees, and financial support for reparations for war crime victims in Ukraine.
