2020 TVC LAW FIRM PRO BONO MISSION PARTNER AWARD

The Veterans Consortium Pro Bono Program congratulates Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe, LLP on their selection to receive the 2020 TVC Law Firm Pro Bono Mission Partner Award in recognition of their outstanding record of service to our nation’s veterans and their families, caregivers, and survivors. Orrick has a firmwide, longstanding commitment to social justice and impact. Nearly 100% of their U.S. lawyers contributed at least 20 hours of pro bono service in 2019. Orrick is also strongly committed to supporting veterans and their spouses, advocating for the veteran community in many ways. Under the leadership of Pro Bono Counsel Rene Kathawala, Orrick became a TVC Core Mission Partner. As part of this partnership, Orrick hosted a CAVC training, which was webcast to their offices in New York, Houston, Orange County, Santa Monica, San Francisco & Sacramento. Close to two dozen Orrick attorneys attended the training, and 85% of these new volunteers promptly took a case. To date, all outcomes have been successful. Orrick has also committed to continue to engage and encourage their attorneys to take our training and to represent veterans. Their passion for TVC’s work and commitment to pro bono service demonstrates that the firm of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe, LLP has “gone above and beyond the call of duty” on behalf of our nation’s veterans.
