SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
Donating our time, talent and treasure to those in need
In challenging and often divisive times, we at Lavelle Law strongly believe that social responsibility requires more than a corporate statement. As a leading law firm in the Chicago area, we strive to improve the communities in which we live and work. That is why we have tackled social issues like hunger and poverty since our inception. For over two decades, we have hosted the Lavelle Law Charities Food Drive each holiday season generating truckloads of donations for those in need. Many attorneys on our staff provide pro bono services through various legal aid organizations to those who cannot afford quality representation. Additionally, many of us serve as board members or are active volunteers and donors to a wide range of charitable organizations that improve the lives of individuals and families facing personal, professional, educational, physical, financial, and emotional challenges. Through our foundation, Lavelle Law Charities, we are proud and active contributors of time and financial support to many charitable institutions. We have received numerous awards for our commitment to service including the national Beacon of Justice Award presented by the National Legal Aid & Defender Association. The organizations listed below are just some of those to which our attorneys have donated their time, talent and treasure.
