The Vance Center’s partnerships with law firms throughout the world enables us to provide pro bono legal representation to our clients.
Our own lawyers work with clients to identify their needs, and wethen invite law firms to work on the projects with us. Some call for only one law firm, but most often several firms form a team, analyzing the laws of as many or more countries. In such multi-jurisdictional matters, a U.S. law firm, usually one represented on the Vance Center Committee, acts as coordinating counsel.
