"Working on pro bono matters reflects the true spirit of service,
which is a fundamental pillar of the legal profession, and
which, in some cases, is fading over time.... I am excited to be
part of these projects that contribute to building a better
society, and I am proud of our progress as a Firm in this regard".
Camila Rivera, Firm Intern
"It was a pleasure to participate in Appleseed's project to
support Fundación Paso del Norte para la Salud y Bienestar
A.C. in fulfilling its obligations under the Money Laundering Law.
I believe it is very relevant that civil organizations receive support
with legal issues so that they can fully dedicate themselves to
the management and operation of the foundation."
Esthefany Rojas, Associate of the Firm
"Working on pro bono projects is very rewarding, since it
allows us to support people who really need help in specific
matters and cannot afford such advice. In these projects, the
results are visible almost immediately and we are left with
the satisfaction of knowing that we were able to help. In
addition, the projects are very interesting, they force us to
update ourselves in our legal knowledge, to know the reality
of how the law operates. In the end, this program make us
better lawyers and better people."
Daniel Urdiain, Associate of the Firm
Estándares Pro Bono México
We are signatories and reviewers of the Estándares Pro Bono
México. This is an effort we are making in the interest of
establishing the bases, motives, and considerations that will
allow us to standardize the concept of pro bono legal work in
the country. Our work in this regard is in addition to the activities
that this movement carries out together with other organizations.

PROBONOmx
We are also signatories to the Pro Bono Declaration of the
Americas (see here), a mechanism that offers the opportunity
to promote pro bono legal work in the Americas.
The above-mentioned initiatives show the commitment to
put our expertise at the service of vulnerable groups, without
forgetting the need to establish links with organizations
that will help us expand our reach.
b. Community Service Program
We want to develop a culture of social responsibility and
integrity, not only within the Firm, but with our stakeholders.
The communities in which we are immersed are part
of these groups.
We created a Community Service Program that aims to promote
the culture of social and environmental development through
activities that involve our people. In this case, collaboration with
key stakeholders for the Firm in Mexico (clients, associations,
and suppliers, to mention a few examples) is decisive.
This program is managed by the Community Service Committee,
led by Miriam Villafaña Reguero, Social Responsibility Director of
the Firm in Mexico.
