Our Perspectives
I think our clients really appreciate the team approach we take - we all work together to achieve the best solution.
People take the time to teach. You are given the opportunity to step up when and if you want it.
Working with different size companies and different types of clients is really exciting.
The fact that Goodwin has opportunities to work on diversity issues shows that the firm cares about you, the individual, not just as an employee.
Diversity and Inclusion
Goodwin is committed to promoting diversity in our law firm and in the legal profession. We are also committed to an inclusive environment in which each employee can excel and thrive. Diversity and inclusion are core to our business and our values, and our Chairman-led Inclusion Advisory Committee ensures that we make our efforts in this area a top priority.

Active Matters
Very often those who most need legal representation can least afford to pay for it. Whether it’s guidance on housing, immigration, criminal defense or small business development, free and reliable legal counsel can make real and lasting changes in people’s lives and livelihoods. That’s why pro bono work is one of the cornerstones of our firm.
