Our PURPOSE
USING BUSINESS LAW AS A FORCE FOR GOOD!
People, Planet, Profit + Purpose
At Kickstart Law, we are a new kind of law firm for a changing world.
We believe that the practice and business of law can, and should, integrate the quadruple bottom line: "People, Planet, Profit and Purpose".
Our quest is to embody B Lab's “Declaration of Interdependence,” which states:
​
-
That we must be the change we seek in the world.
-
That all business ought to be conducted as if people and place mattered.
-
That, through their products, practices, and profits, businesses should aspire to do no harm and benefit all.
-
To do so requires that we act with the understanding that we are dependent upon another and thus responsible for each other and future generations.
