Since its founding over 85 years ago, Covington has had a strong commitment to public service. The firm encourages all of its lawyers to participate in pro bono work, and devotes significant resources to finding pro bono projects that reflect the diverse interests of its attorneys.

Much of Covington's pro bono work reflects the firm's commitment to providing legal services to economically disadvantaged individuals and families in our surrounding communities. Our six-month rotation program reflects this commitment by allowing attorneys and staff to work at each of three DC-based legal service organizations -- Neighborhood Legal Services Program, the Children's Law Center and Bread for the City.
