Eco-Friendly Initiative
At Genthe Law Firm, we strive to reduce our organization’s carbon footprint while also establishing a healthy work-life balance for our employees. One of the main sustainability challenges faced by the legal industry stems from outdated business models. At Genthe Law, we’ve made a commitment to do our part in preventing socially and environmentally damaging operations. Our areas of focus include:
- Eliminating habitual use of all single-use plastics.
- Use of an online, cloud-based documentation and case management system that greatly reduces the need for paper.
- Our text-based program for clients offers a creative solution to substantially decrease the amount of printed correspondence.
- Transportation accounts for 29% of the U.S. emissions. Our mission supports a work-from-home policy in order to decrease our mobility-linked carbon footprint.
- In addition, Genthe Law Firm requests remote hearings on all out of county hearings to further decrease our mobility-linked footprint.
- As a litigation firm who spends countless hours in the court room, we offer the option to opposing parties to have motions presented electronically instead of printed copies saving thousands of pieces of paper yearly.
- All legal research, statutes, primers, and other legal books are all purchases in an e-book format rather than the printed copy.
