How to Improve Sustainability at Your Law Firm – a Toolkit
Learn how to develop and implement ESG goals, no matter where you are in your journey.
The law firm of the future is mindful of its environmental impact, employee well-being, and practices ethical leadership. It ties sustainability initiatives into its values, knowing they are both a responsibility and an opportunity.

There’s a lot of potential value created by that effort. Law firms implementing sustainable practices have seen improvements in cost efficiencies, employee morale, and brand reputation.

But how exactly do you start the journey? What can your firm do to show commitment to environmental, social, governance (ESG) practices?

Implementing ESG may seem complex at first, but it really comes down to taking small steps to achieve specific goals. You may even have started on a few initiatives without realizing it, like moving processes from paper into the cloud or offering remote work flexibility – all of this impacts your ESG initiatives.

We’ve built this toolkit to help law firms develop and implement ESG goals, no matter where they are in their journey. Here’s what is covered:
  • What is ESG?
  • Why should law firms invest in it?
  • How is it beneficial?
  • Steps to implementing ESG practices
  • Common obstacles and how to overcome them
  • How a paperless firm drives financial and non-financial success (+ environmental impact calculator)
