Our Commitment to Responsible Business Development
Reducing our Environmental Footprint
We have become a Certified Bay Area Green Business by implementing measures to reduce our consumption, recycle, conserve water, reduce pollution, and conserve energy.
Reduce & Recycle
As a virtual law firm, much of our work is performed electronically, reducing the high amount of paper waste which is traditionally associated with running an office. When possible we use the backsides of printed sheets for notes and drafts, use two-sided printing, and generally reduce the number of documents which need to be printed. We buy reusable and repairable office items and select products with as little packaging as possible.
We use equipment with energy saving features, fans and windows instead of air conditioning, and take advantage of natural lighting.
We use recyled paper products, with the highest percent of Post-Consumer Waste available, whenever possible. We purchase binders made of recycled cardboard with reusable metal rings. Our business cards are printed on 100% post-consumer waste paper. They are printed at a Inkworks, a local worker owned and managed union printershop.
Cultivating Community
We support locally-owned businesses whenever possible. We also are committed to supporting businesses that share our values, near and far. Read more about our business alliances. Outside of work the members of our firm continue to be actively involved in making their communities better places to live and work. Read more about our team members’ community involvement.
