Pro Bono Work
To ENVIR Advocaten and its lawyers, social commitment is an integral part of the legal profession. For that reason, ENVIR Advocaten has been an active member of the Pro Bono Club since its launch in December 2016.
The Pro Bono Club (www.probonoclub.nl) is a platform that brings NGOs and CSOs seamlessly into contact with enthusiastic lawyers and other legal service providers who are willing to undertake pro bono services for such organizations. The Pro Bono Club believes that the activities of both large and small associations, foundations and other organizations are invaluable for Dutch society. Not only because of their social goals but also because they connect people, which enriches and strengthens our society. Moreover, it is fulfilling to help others, especially when they are in need of assistance. The Pro Bono Club has more than 100 committed legal service providers as members who subscribe to this philosophy.
