About our OrganizationPryor Cashman is a premier, mid-sized law firm that is known for getting the job done right and doing it with integrity, efficiency and élan. We have assembled the finest legal minds and business acumen in 12 different practice groups encompassing 88 different practice areas. We consider ourselves an entrepreneurial law firm, unencumbered by bureaucracy - able to break new ground with unique approaches. An environment where lawyers make independent, informed and creative decisions on behalf of their clients - eliminating logjams and avoiding wasteful over-lawyering. We are known for our expeditious and creative handling of complex challenges, our accessibility, practicality, and equally important, our cost-sensible solutions. We know that solutions don't happen in a vacuum. Problems cannot be solved without a deep understanding of the business and circumstances under which the problem arose. This is why we become specialists in your business, acting as valuable partners to you with impressive legal expertise. Our Sustainability Vision and StrategyPryor Cashman’s Thinking Green initiative encompasses sustainability, stewardship and environmental commitments. Thinking Green embodies the philosophy that a law firm can and should play an important role in addressing today’s challenges facing the environment. We take our role as environmental stewards seriously and want our clients to know that we share the environmental challenges that affect the way that businesses operate today. We join our clients in supporting environmental sustainability and strive to reduce our carbon footprint. Pryor Cashman recognizes that the Thinking Green initiative begins with a focus on minimizing the environmental impact of our own business operations and employing pioneering environmental measures. For example, we are reducing paper usage and providing electronic documentation whenever possible. We encourage duplex printing and now use 30% post-consumer recycled stock for our photocopies and general printing. Our letterhead stationery is 100% cotton (meaning no trees were used in its production) and our marketing materials are now printed on 100% post consumer recycled stock. As part of our Thinking Green initiative, we are exploring methods to reduce our electricity usage, evaluating the use of natural cleaning products and working with our building to monitor refuse removal. We have expanded our recycling practices and encourage employees to use ceramic and glass plates and cups rather then paper.At Pryor Cashman, we will continue to assess our carbon footprint and put into practice sustainable solutions that address environmental concerns. We will be Thinking Green. Examples of our Sustainability Initiatives
