Responsible business

At Russell-Cooke, responsible business is integral to how we practise law and measure success. It shapes our decisions, our culture and the way we support our clients, our people and the communities around us.

Our Responsible Business Strategy sets out our long-term commitments and priorities, focusing on practical, meaningful action and steady progress across our Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) responsibilities. It reflects our belief that lasting impact is achieved through thoughtful, consistent change rather than one-off initiatives.

It is structured around four strategic pillars:

• Our environment
• Access to justice
• Our people
• Our community

For each pillar, we have defined clear objectives and measurable goals to guide our work and track progress over time. Our Responsible Business Report 2025-26 brings this approach to life through detailed updates, case studies and insights, illustrating how responsibility is embedded across the firm’s operations and decision-making.
