Transformation

Spoor & Fisher is an international firm which celebrates and embraces diversity.

Spoor & Fisher South Africa has implemented a programme of transformation which has been acclaimed in the South African legal profession.

The cornerstones of our programme of transformation are commitments to:

• providing intellectual property services to our clients which are innovative, appropriate and of a world-class standard;
• empowering people at our firm to reach their full potential;
• celebrating and embracing diversity;
• addressing the need for transformation of our firm and of South African society;
• rejecting discrimination in any form;
• encouraging an open and transparent culture.

Our programme of transformation is led by Chris Bull, the Chairperson of our Executive Committee, who comments as follows:

“Spoor & Fisher is often commended for the work that it does in the area of transformation. We see this as going well beyond the objectives we have set ourselves under the Legal Services Charter in South Africa. We believe that we have an important role and duty to fulfill in skills training in both the legal profession and intellectual property as a specialization, community projects in the regions where our offices are situated and a broader corporate-social responsibility programme in South African society. All of these programmes lie at the very heart of our corporate culture and value system.”
