Pro Bono
Mission
Our founders aspired to create a different kind of law firm when they launched Crowell & Moring in 1979. From those bold beginnings, our mission has been to provide all our clients with the best services of any law firm in the world through a spirit of trust, respect, cooperation, and collaboration, and a commitment to giving back to the communities around us.
Over 30 years ago, we were the first law firm to hire a full-time public service counsel and to promote that counsel to full-time public service partner. Today, Crowell has a dedicated team of four full-time pro bono professionals, who work closely with the firm’s active Public Service Committee, comprising lawyers from all our offices.
The firm’s lawyers have the freedom to build their pro bono practices and focus on areas of importance to them as individuals. Our dedication to pro bono and public service is a core part of who we are as a firm. We pride ourselves on our deep commitment to a wide-ranging public service program, and we continually seek out new areas where we can make a meaningful difference.
Every day, Crowell attorneys make a real difference through their pro bono work. They have kept families in their homes, battled racial discrimination, and waged campaigns to support the civil rights of all individuals. Through their tireless efforts, they have made our society a better place.
