Connecticut Law Tribune
September 13, 2013
“In honor of all the pro bono work that GE lawyers do, the Connecticut Law Tribune will honor Denniston’s troops with the Legal Departments of the Year Pro Bono Award.
‘What we’ve tried to do is approach pro bono work as if it’s a major initiative for the legal organization and apply the same process, rigor and measurements as we would for any significant initiative,’ said Denniston. ‘Our goal was 50 percent participation which we’ve exceeded by a substantial amount.’
Though GE is an international company, its pro bono initiatives are not the same everywhere. But the constant is that its lawyers get involved in the communities in which they work.”
