NEW YORK, May 17, 2023: For the second year in a row, Morgan Lewis has achieved Gold status on the All Legal Industry Sustainability Standard (ALISS) assessment of law firms’ sustainability efforts. The ALISS assessment evaluates five broad categories: internal sustainability, external sustainability, stakeholder engagement, measuring and reporting, and innovation and challenge. Separately, and for the third consecutive year, Morgan Lewis has been honored by ODP Business Solutions for its leadership in Greener Purchasing Award for the firm’s dedication to sustainability when purchasing office supplies.
“As part of our focus to manage more sustainable operations, we all have an impact. Our firm and our colleagues take this responsibility seriously, and we are proud to share the commitment to this important common cause with our clients and the legal industry as a whole,” said Firm Chair Jami McKeon.
Morgan Lewis’s global sustainability efforts are shaped in part by a firmwide working group that sets goals, assesses the firm’s environmental practices, and makes recommendations for establishing more sustainable standards for the firm globally.
