Last Saturday, Simpson Thacher answered a call from the International Refugee Assistance Project for volunteer lawyers to assist at major airports following the President’s Immigration Executive Order on January 27. Over 30 Simpson Thacher lawyers traveled to several of the nation’s airports and assisted over the weekend with efforts to help those affected by the Executive Order. Simpson Thacher has an abiding commitment to preserving civil and human rights and a long history of providing pro bono legal representation to immigrants and refugees. We will continue to fulfill that commitment by assisting organizations, communities and individuals in need.
