Much is proud to announce that for the 17th consecutive year, the firm has been named by the Public Interest Law Initiative (PILI) to its Pro Bono Recognition Roster. The 2026 list recognizes 40 law firms and corporations in Illinois for their significant contributions to pro bono services. Honorees were celebrated at PILI’s Annual Pro Bono Reception on June 24.
Much has an enduring history of providing pro bono services and giving back through Much Community, the firm’s social responsibility initiative. Pro bono service is a cornerstone of Much’s community engagement, with attorneys across every practice group dedicating their time and legal guidance.
“It’s an honor to receive this recognition for 17 consecutive years,” said Much Community Chair Steve Blonder. “It’s a true testament to our firm’s commitment to those in need and our belief in the meaningful difference access to legal services can make for them. We look forward to continuing to show up for our communities in the years to come.”
Much is proud to support PILI’s mission of engaging, inspiring, and empowering those advancing equal access to legal services. We remain committed to supporting an environment where public interest law engagement is woven into the fabric of the profession, ensuring its full potential reaches those who depend on it most.
