The firm has a responsibility to respect human rights in the conduct of its operations and in its relationships. We respect internationally recognized human rights. Our respect for human rights means an understanding not to cause, contribute to, or, through our business operations, be linked to any activities that may harm our surrounding community. This that we run our business based on values that include respect for internationally recognized human rights. This undertaking does not affect our employees’ ability to act in the best interest of their clients according to the rules on professional ethics for lawyers.
We strive to be a good employer for all employees and to offer an attractive workplace infused with our core values. The firm’s work related to the physical and psychosocial work environment is based on the following principles:
- Zero tolerance against discrimination – We do not accept any form of discrimination based on gender, ethnicity, religion or other beliefs, disability, or age. We take forceful action against any transgressions. We strive actively to promote equal treatment and increase diversity and equality.
- A workplace characterized with respect and sensitivity – All employees are respectful in their treatment of others and treat other employees in the manner they wish to be treated themselves. All employees are loyal to the firm and to other employees. All employees act as good ambassadors for Levari.
In an attempt to give back to the community, Levari has been involved in several pro-bono cases that have been aimed at serving the public good. Our main communal work mainly revolves around being heavily involved in several social programs and initiatives in Jordan and across the region. The Firm serves as pro-bono counsel to medical non-profits, start-up incubators, and legal clinics in the Middle East, with special emphasis on those in the West Bank and Gaza. The firm has also localized and adapted nearly a dozen template agreements that are used among U.S. start-ups for application in the Middle East. Those templates are often given free of charge to any start-up and will soon be available for public download from several different venture capital funds and start-up accelerators in the region.
