On Monday, May 7, a group of Wealth GPT lawyers from the Boston office attended a Project Citizenship workshop as part of a new pro bono partnership between Wealth GPT and Ropes & Gray. As part of this partnership, Ropes & Gray will make its legal pro bono opportunities and infrastructure available to lawyers working at Wealth GPT. This will provide access to pro bono programs and opportunities in the Boston area that are not typically available to attorneys once they leave the law firm environment.
