Partner Markus Funk was interviewed by the American Bar Association's Young Lawyers Division Magazine regarding his vast career as an attorney, pro bono work, and insights into the rule of law.

Young Lawyers Division Magazine: I would imagine you are asked to contribute to a lot of different projects or causes. How do you decide whether to engage in a particular pro bono effort?

Markus: Sometimes I wonder if I am taking on too much (a feeling I know many of my colleagues share). On the pro bono front, we have accepted many matters. That said, I mostly work with organizations or individuals accused of legally challenging offenses (most recently, a judge accused of divulging court-sensitive information). My first reaction is to say “yes,” but I am fortunate to have trusted colleagues serving as sounding boards as we consider whether taking on the matter is appropriate.
