B Corp certification

Bellevue Law is proud to be certified as a B Corp. At the time of our accreditation in March 2024, Bellevue Law was only the 15th law firm in the UK to become B Corp certified. We achieved a verified B Impact score of 88.6 points on certification, with 80 points required to certify.

Published annual Impact Reports

Importantly, our B Corp certification not only commits us to publishing an Impact Report every year, but will establish a benchmark against which to measure our impact.

Moved to a sustainable office

At Bellevue Law, for example, we have moved to a more environmentally sustainable office, use green energy and smart sockets to reduce consumption, and offer ESG-compliant pension options and incentives for employees working from home to switch to green energy suppliers.

Declined controversial sectors

As a certified B Corp, we have taken a streamlined approach to ethical client selection, declining to act for corporate clients in sectors deemed controversial or ineligible under B Corp standards, including fossil fuels, gambling and tobacco.

Contributes to good causes

We also commit to contributing 2% of pre-tax profit to good causes, with a focus on initiatives which champion the rights of women and girls, especially those vulnerable to discrimination or harassment. For many years, we have supported the Wandsworth Home-Start Christmas Carol Service and made a donation to Trinity Hospice for each client who completes our annual survey.
