In addition to working together in serving the firm's clients and running its business, Ropes & Gray lawyers enjoy spending time together to pursue a wide variety of shared non-law interests. Ropes & Gray encourages its lawyers to have active lives apart from their legal careers and, to that end, sponsors numerous social and sports activities and events that lawyers in the firm can elect to participate in as they wish. Of course, even apart from these firm-sponsored events and activities, Ropes & Gray lawyers frequently socialize with one another outside the office context, and we all have active family and community involvements wholly separate from our connection to the firm.
For the last nine years, a team of lawyers from our offices has ridden in the Pan-Mass Challenge, a 192 mile bike-a-thon that raises money for the Dana Farber Cancer Institute.
The Winter Ball was held in February 2007 at the Convention Center in Boston. The event brought together lawyers from all of our offices for a memorable evening.
