Giving Back in Our Community
Our commitment to our community extends beyond the walls of the firm. Giving back is a core value at Hemenway & Barnes. Our professionals devote time to the communities in which we work and live, providing pro bono legal services, volunteering, and performing days of service as a firm. We weave our commitment to diversity and community into the work we do, the vendors with whom we do business and our hiring practices. Ours is an open culture where neighbor helps neighbor.

Jeans for a Cause: Quarterly Firm Fundraisers
Each quarter, Hemenway & Barnes hosts a fundraising initiative to raise money and awareness for charitable organizations and causes. Employees are invited to nominate a cause close to their hearts, and on fundraising day, we celebrate by wearing jeans to show our support.
Finding Inspiration
Our clients, Jessica Kensky and Patrick Downes, published the book, "Rescue & Jessica". The inspiring story of a girl and her service dog is based on the real-life partnership between the book's author and her service dog, Rescue.
