Clifford Chance | About Us | Community Affairs

Clifford Chance people all over the world care passionately about the communities in which they work.

As a firm we are committed to making a positive contribution to society, improving access to justice, and managing our impact on the environment.

Our community affairs programme helps turn good intentions into practical results. We focus on three key areas: pro bono legal work; community education and charity initiatives; and support for the arts.

Individuals drive the programme, which is entirely voluntary. They choose how, when and where they get involved. Many of our projects started as ideas brought forward by individuals and groups within the firm. Most of our people take the opportunity to work on initiatives that help them learn more about themselves at the same time as they are helping others.

Community Affairs Review

A year has passed since my return to the Banking and Finance department and I can confirm what I had perceived to be true during my work experience: namely, that the best way to become a first class lawyer is to take the most entertaining, creative and exciting choice that business law has to offer and practice in a firm like Clifford Chance.
