Our Focus Areas
-
Building Resilient Organizations
Primarily through Outside General Counsel services, we support communities of color, migrant communities, and other marginalized groups to develop thriving organizations and infrastructures that secure their self-determination.
-
Facilitating Transformative Finance
We support clients to activate economic strategies, such as divest/invest—divestment from extractive economic structures, and investment into restorative economies—by creating innovative financial pathways.
-
Structuring Collective Land Stewardship
We work with clients who move land and real estate away from the speculative market, and toward collective land ownership and/or stewardship. Examples of this include housing cooperatives and community land trusts.
-
Growing Just Transition
We help build a robust field of just transition lawyers, who are aligned and prepared to work in and with community towards a regenerative economy. We do this through the Just Transition Lawyering Institute, our client work, and educational and community events.
About Us
We are a boutique law firm with an eight-person staff, including six lawyers.
We are lawyers, teachers, and advocates for racial equity and economic justice. Together, we bring many decades of legal experience and work with mission-driven organizations, businesses, and government-led initiatives.
