"There are many things about DLA Piper that make me proud, but none more so than the quality and quantity of our pro bono work around the world. The greatest moments of personal satisfaction in my career – bar none – have been in making a difference in people’s lives through pro bono."
- Jeff Liss

Part of what makes our pro bono work so meaningful is the impact it makes in the lives of others. At a time when at least 80% of low-income Americans go without desperately needed civil legal assistance, we work for those who may not otherwise receive representation. We also address broad community concerns with our signature projects. And we have gone global with the creation of New Perimeter, a nonprofit affiliate of the firm dedicated to international pro bono work.
We are pleased and proud that in 2007 alone we donated over 128,000 pro bono hours to aiding these causes. We hope to continue growing our programs, and the impact they have, in the years to come. Please click on the links to the left to learn more about what we do.
