Advancing Opportunity Through Pro Bono Partnerships

Morgan Lewis's pro bono work helps nonprofit organizations strengthen their capacity to serve communities and advance meaningful social impact. Through its longstanding partnership with PAR-Recycle Works, a Philadelphia-based nonprofit, the firm supports an innovative model that combines workforce development for individuals returning from incarceration with responsible electronics recycling. By providing pro bono legal counsel on matters ranging from litigation, governance and employment to real estate and environmental issues, Morgan Lewis has helped the organization grow its operations, including the acquisition of a new warehouse and recycling facility. These efforts have strengthened PAR-Recycle Works' ability to expand employment opportunities, reduce recidivism, and promote environmental sustainability.

The Morgan Lewis team included litigation partners John McGahren, Greg Parks, Dana Becker and Chris McAuliffe; labor and employment partner Kenneth Turnbull; corporate and business transactions partners Steve Cohen and Rachel Lewis; corporate and business transactions associates Rachel Chang and Harrison Haas; senior attorney Shane O’Halloran; intellectual property associate Phillip Wolfe; and litigation associates Maria Cosma, Mark Donatiello, and Felipe Rigaudeau-Lopez.
