In June 2020, international law firm Hogan Lovells announced a significant commitment to expanding racial justice efforts worldwide. They pledged to allocate 65,000 pro bono hours to initiatives aimed at advancing racial justice. A surprising development has emerged: as of this week’s reports, Hogan Lovells’ team members have outdone their original commitment, having poured approximately 107,000 hours into these progressive causes throughout 2023.
This robust commitment not only underlines the firm’s dedication to tackling racial justice but also showcases the power of concerted pro bono activity in addressing global social issues. With these efforts continuing, Hogan Lovells displays an exemplary model for other law firms and corporations worldwide to follow.
