A number of the Kramer Levin attorneys have functioned as directors for nonprofit groups such as the Legal Aid Society, Human Rights First, South Brooklyn Legal Services, Volunteers of Legal Service, and the New York Legal Assistance Group. Youth mentoring, moot court programs, and other community service projects are also served by the firm's attorneys.
