Describe your firm’s philosophy on pro bono service.

McGuireWoods looks to take on transformative issues in its pro bono work, but the primary objective of that work is to help people facing life-changing circumstances who lack the resources to hire lawyers overcome challenges. If that results in a U.S. Supreme Court victory that changes public policy, a record-setting judgment or a better way to battle homelessness, that’s just an additional benefit of doing good for our communities.
