It’s great to see that our firm has been ranked sixth in the recently published environmental, social and governance (ESG) law firm ranking 2022, by Impactvise.

The Impactvise ranking evaluates more than 1,000 global law firms based on their ESG policies, practices, and performance, as well as their impact on society and the environment.  It’s pleasing to see that we scored particularly well in the areas of sustainability governance, employee engagement, and environmental management.

We’ve always placed great importance on conducting our business in a responsible and sustainable way.  This is highlighted throughout our recently launched Responsible Business Report, which outlines the various initiatives that we have implemented to support our commitment to responsible business practices.

As part of our commitment to the UN Global Compact, we report annually on our progress through this report – which this year is entitled ‘Making an impact with ESG’ – and includes information on our approach, priorities and progress.

As more businesses prioritise ESG, it’s important that we continue to try and make the most positive impact possible on our society and the environment.  Whilst we recognise there is further progress to be made, at Burges Salmon, we believe that we all have a role to play in creating a more sustainable future, and we are committed to continuing with this in the years to come.
