Sustainability/ESG and Law Firms: Challenges and Opportunities

Clients in business, industry, government, and nongovernmental organizations are increasingly committed to sustainability and increasingly expect their lawyers to have the same commitment and understanding. This session will discuss why incorporating the tenets of Conscious Capitalism is relevant for the legal profession, addresses core concerns for law firm leaders, and supports those law professionals working with ESG/Sustainability goals who are both starting and seeking to progress further.

We will discuss the challenges traditional law firms face when incorporating these principles and the new opportunities and the idea of ESG – an umbrella term – and Conscious Capitalism in particular as Practice Differentiators.
