The law firm Greenberg Traurig Nowakowska-Zimoch Wysokiński has been unanimously selected as the most engaged firm in providing pro bono assistance to those in need during 2025. This recognition comes from the "Ranking Firm Doradztwa Podatkowego" (Tax Advisory Firms Ranking), which annually awards firms for sharing their specialized knowledge and time with individuals and organizations who often lack access due to cost barriers.
Pro bono assistance from specialists often serves as a lifeline for people in difficult situations, offering a path out of crisis. It also plays a vital role in leveling the playing field, as access to reliable information empowers individuals to make informed decisions and assert their rights. The editorial team, in collaboration with Centrum Pro Bono, a non-profit supporting organizations in finding legal aid, made the selection based on submitted descriptions of pro bono activities.
Greenberg Traurig's commitment extends beyond traditional legal aid. In 2025, the firm established a strategic partnership with the Faculty of Law and Administration at the University of Warsaw. This collaboration includes research and development, knowledge exchange, and joint scientific and business initiatives. A key outcome of this partnership is Poland's first postgraduate program on AI and innovation for lawyers, designed to equip legal professionals with skills in implementing generative AI, managing legal risks, and ensuring compliance.
The firm has also provided pro bono legal and tax advice to prominent organizations such as the Auschwitz Jewish Foundation, Ronald McDonald House Charities, the White Stork Foundation, and the Polish Medical Mission. Mateusz Fedeńczuk, coordinator at Centrum Pro Bono, emphasized that Greenberg Traurig's award is primarily for its tangible pro bono activities, characterized by substantive expert work rather than mere symbolic gestures. The firm consistently supports social and humanitarian organizations with practical legal, tax, and organizational advice, aiding their daily operations and significant social projects.
The award for Greenberg Traurig is primarily for its actual pro bono activities, understood as the provision of free legal and tax assistance.
