Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer has seen the amount of time devoted to pro bono and volunteering work by partners and employees fall by 11% over the last year, according to its 2010-11 corporate responsibility (CR) report.
The firm dedicated 49,743 hours worth £8.8m to pro bono and volunteering activities according to the report – with the hours tally significantly down on 2010.
It attributed the drop to a change in strategy meaning that it now targets fewer, more significant projects rather than multiple small pieces of work.
