Community Involvement

David Fagan, Partner - Banking & Financial Services

Well lawyers are in a privileged position, they've got a commitment to pro bono which we have certainly embraced. All participating with members of the community which we have done through our Community Connect program is very important, not only to the partners, but also to the staff of the firm.

Stuart Clark, Managing Partner - International

Our commitment to the community in a very large part defines Clayton Utz. We have the largest pro bono program of any law firm anywhere in the world outside the United States.

Michael Riches, Partner - Debt Finance

I think the good thing about the Clayton Utz Program and what sets it apart from a lot of other programs is that to make a community involvement work you actually need your people to be engaged in the process.

Julie Levis, Managing Partner, Sydney

I think that's a fantastic way of feeling involved and the more people feel some ownership and engagement with the community at large, I think, the more balanced they're going to be and more productive and satisfied in their day to day life.
