At the core of our business strategy, and decision-making processes, Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) and Corporate Sustainability are essential drivers that shape KŠB’s law firm mission. Generating positive outcomes for our clients, our colleagues and the community on the basis of these values is how we take actionable steps towards a more sustainable future.

Climate Change. We are committed to reducing our energy usage and carbon footprint, with a goal of progressing to carbon neutrality. Since July 2022, KŠB has been accepted into the Program MONITORING/REDUCING CO2 in the Czech Republic, monitored by the non-profit organization www.ci2.co.cz, that monitors our law firm’s carbon footprint and compares it to other local companies. 

Pro bono 

As a renowned Czech law firm, we are fully aware of our social responsibility.

  • Since 1995, we have been regularly supporting the Committee of Good Will - Olga Havel Foundation, specifically the New Family and Senior projects, especially through the annual Benefit Concerts, through which over 24 million crowns have been raised for these projects. – We are a proud holder of the Award for Long-Term Partnership awarded by the Via Foundation for its long-term support of the Committee of Good Will - Olga Havel Foundation.
  •  We support music and talent. Therefore, as one of the sponsors, we supported the concert of the world-famous Czech pianist Tomáš Kačo, which took place in one of the most famous concert halls in the world - New York's Carnegie Hall.
  • We continuously provide assistance with the Impuls Endowment Fund, which focuses on helping patients with multiple sclerosis, with resolving tax and accounting issues. We also provided advice on the creation and operation of the Remus registry - a registry of patients with multiple sclerosis.
  • We participated in the project "Lawyers in schools", the essence of which is to improve the legal awareness of pupils and students.
  • In 2008, KŠB signed a pro bono declaration, the main goal of which is to support the development of pro bono legal services for lawyers in the Czech Republic.
