Think responsible

Think Baker McKenzie

Doing things the right way

As a firm, we’re serious about making a positive difference. Not just to our clients, but the communities we’re part of and the wider world too. Bring a head full of bright ideas and a clear sense of purpose, and in return we’ll give you the chance to do the same.

Charity support

Each year, we elect key charities, which we support for the following 12 months. In recent years, our people have helped to refurbish housing, served lunches to those in need and knitted scarves for older members of the community.

Pro bono work

Pro bono work is a fundamental part of life at Baker McKenzie. From providing commercial support to charities, through to human rights research and advocacy, it gives our lawyers a chance to help those who may not otherwise have access to justice. Our pro bono clients include Save the Children, InspiringHK Sports Foundation and RUN Hong Kong Ltd.

"In the short time I've been here, I've also been fortunate enough to work on a couple of pro bono projects. To my mind, making a positive impact is what being a lawyer is all about. And it's great being able to do that so early in my career."

Sustainability

For us, responsible business means building a firm for the future — one that can support our clients’ success, while preserving our commitments to our people, our communities and our planet. On that basis, we have placed sustainability at the core of our business strategy for the coming decade.

Social

We strive to use our skills, creativity and influence to promote dignity, human rights and equality in every aspect of what we do. Whether fostering our own internal culture, interacting with global clients, or engaging with the communities where we live and work, we are guided by these principles.

Governance

Good governance is the cornerstone of good business. That’s why, as a firm, we are committed to promoting transparency, ethical behavior and accountability both within our own operations, and externally through our influence, counsel and strategic partnerships.
