Riker Danzig’s Pro Bono Work
Improving Our Communities
Our distinguished history representing pro bono clients and charitable foundations is widely recognized. In 2008, the New Jersey Law Journal commended Riker Danzig as the most active pro bono firm in the state. The New Jersey Law Journal has continued to give the firm high marks each year in the publication's annual survey of pro bono hours. In addition, Riker Danzig was awarded the Corporate Partner of the Year Award in 2005 by the Hope Chest Scholarship Foundation, which provides financial assistance to deserving minority youths of the State of New Jersey attending a college, university or trade school. We were also pleased to receive the 2005 Corporate Philanthropy Award by The Community Foundation of New Jersey in recognition for the pro bono and charitable organization work with which the firm has been involved.
Associates receive regular training in this area and are encouraged to take on pro bono matters of their choice. Time spent performing pro bono work is included in an associate's billable hours. Aside from pro bono legal services, members of the firm actively engage in community work by serving on boards of directors or committees of non-profit organizations, and on boards of organizations that seek to increase access to legal services for those with limited financial means. The firm has performed legal services for a significant number and variety of charitable organizations.
