In our 2018 Pro Bono Hot List, we laud 14 firms that exemplify the best of law firms that are doing well by doing good.

Over the past year, the firms on our list have taken on some of the weightiest issues of our time, including President Donald Trump’s travel ban and Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), representing both institutions and indiviuals. They challenged the money bail system covering the nation’s third-largest jail in Harris County, Texas and the bond system for noncitizen detainees in Los Angeles. On the East Coast, they secured a win in a major case involving Pennsylvania gerrymandering. And when it came to the U.S. Supreme Court, they dominated, with a partner at one firm arguing three pro bono cases in four weeks and winning them all‑‑unanimously.
