We are dedicated to CSR & Human rights and to provide our clients with the most recent updates within the field. Our voluntary pro bono work gives us a unique position not only to follow international developments, but also to create the best solutions.
We are leading among Algerian law firms in the scope of pro bono activities performed.
Our pro bono work includes all human rights work and discrimination suits, Social Security, consumer, children and family matters, in both hearings and appeals. We do not regard matters referred to us by the Algier's Bar Association (Barreau d'Alger) concerning the free defense as part of our pro bono activities.
Our commitment includes also training of young lawyers as well as advising and assisting non-profit community groups, also in non-litigation areas.
Moreover, we perform pro bono work in the following organizations:
· The Arab Commission for Humain Rights
· Board of Directors of the Danish Centre for International Studies and Human Rights
· The Board of Directors and the Council of the Danish Institute for Human Rights
· Chairperson of the International Commission of Jurists, Danish Section
· Member of the International Advisory Council on Globalisation and Corporate Accountability under International Commission of Jurists, Geneva
· Member of the International Advisory Network to the Business & Human Rights Resource Centre
· Advisor to the Business Leaders Initiative on Human Rights
· The Business Policy Committee on Human Rights, the Danish Lawyers Association
· The Council of the Bars and Law Societies of the European Union - CSR working group
· The Advisory Panel on Asylum to the Ministry of Internal Affairs
· The Board of Directors of MIXeurope
· The Board of Directors of the Danish Peace Foundation
We strongly believe that pro bono legal activity is both in the public interest, as well as in the professional interest of our attorneys. Accordingly, we actively sponsor and encourage participation in pro bono work. In evaluating the performance of associates, time devoted to pro bono activities is equally valued as time spent on matters involving our other practice areas.
