Law Firm Leadership Circle

Law Firm Leadership Logo - smallThe CBF Law Firm Leadership Circle and its accompanying statement of principles underscore the critical role that law firms in the Chicago area play in ensuring equal access to justice in our community. The Leadership Circle, currently chaired by David Mendelsohn of DLA Piper LLP (US) and Robert E. Deignan of Baker & McKenzie, represents a commitment to a series of best practices for law firms in the Chicago area to support pro bono, legal aid and related access to justice initiatives.
