At Leason Ellis, pro bono service and community engagement are not obligations—they are part of our culture, our commitment to the law, and our appreciation for the communities we serve.
Through our pro bono efforts, we deliver high-quality legal services to those who may not otherwise have access. We focus on supporting people and organizations with the potential to make a meaningful impact by advancing creativity, education, wellness, environmental stewardship, and animal rights.
Since our founding in 2008, pro bono work has been a cornerstone of our practice. Each year, our attorneys dedicate hundreds of hours to a wide range of matters, including trademarks, copyrights, patents, and litigation, for under-resourced entrepreneurs, nonprofits, and mission-driven organizations.
In recognition of our sustained commitment, Leason Ellis was honored with the New York State Bar Association’s President’s Pro Bono Service Award in 2025.
