Mission
Going Green
K&L Gates has an ongoing commitment to reduce our environmental footprint on a global level. The first step was becoming a participant in the ABA-EPA Law Firm Office Climate Challenge, a program that encourages law offices to take simple, practical steps to become better environmental and energy stewards. As part of this challenge, we’ve taken some major actions such as creating energy-efficient and LEED-certified workspaces, increasing recycling and decreasing waste, reducing electricity consumption by 10 percent, reducing travel through the use of video and teleconference technologies, and going paperless whenever possible through the use of online materials as well as a robust email and document management archiving system
Vision
Our firm is committed to maintaining our forward-looking culture, and we view every decision through the prism of our younger lawyers. Intergenerational excellence is the phrase that captures our central mission to ensure younger lawyers have the benefit of their senior counterparts’ insights and experience, are committed to excellence in client service, and are united by the firm’s commitment to these common goals.
