pro bono
Richards Layton attorneys are committed to serving their community through pro bono work and volunteer efforts. This commitment starts early: our associates are encouraged to join the firm’s pro bono teams in their first year. The teams offer many opportunities to serve, from representing marginalized and underserved members of our community to advising and sitting on non-profit boards. Richards Layton is the Delaware member of the Lex Mundi Pro Bono Foundation, and through Lex Mundi our attorneys can assist national and global organizations with pro bono matters. The firm understands the importance of pro bono work, and our pro bono program gives attorneys the opportunity to use their time and talents to enrich others as well as themselves.
Diversity & Inclusion
At Richards Layton, we value diversity in everything we do. From our senior leaders to our newest hires, from our clients to the organizations we support, diversity is our strength. Our president is the first African American to lead a major Delaware law firm, and many diverse individuals are in leadership roles throughout the firm. Richards Layton is an active sponsor of organizations that promote diversity in the legal profession. Our attorneys serve as mentors to diverse first-year law students, and we participate in a program focused on hiring diverse first-year law students as summer associates. And our commitment goes beyond law students and associates, as we work to support diversity at every stage of our lawyers’ professional development.
