CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTIONS
The firm strongly believes in helping those who
cannot help themselves.
Charitable giving and volunteerism are the
hallmarks of lawyers. It is very important that we give back to the
community, not only legal services for those who cannot afford it, but
also talent and treasure. Since 2004, the firm has chosen several
charities to benefit by giving funds. These charities are chosen by
soliciting input from our staff and clients.
In 2009, the firm chose the following charities

The firm also feels compelled to act when the need
arises. The firm placed a challenge before its employees for Tsunami
Relief wherein the firm agreed to match all donations made by
employees. A considerable amount of money was raised and donated.
The firm again, challenged its staff when
Hurricane Katrina struck. Employees donated significant sums toward the
relief effort which were matched by the firm. The donations were sent
to the American Red Cross. In addition, the partners set a dollar
amount goal, which if met by the employees, would invite them to "jeans
casual" for the entire month of September. This goal was also met.
The firm has contributed to the Illinois Bar
Foundation to assist the legal system in Louisiana and Mississippi as a
result of Hurricane Katrina.
The firm also donates to many local charitable
organizations throughout the year which assist the local community. The
firm encourages everyone who has the ability, whether time, talent or
financial, to help others who are less fortunate.
Whether it be the law, technology, or practice
management, FAL exceeds its clients' expectations and
provides a consistent level of excellence.
