Company Events
We believe in celebrating our employees’ hard work and dedication to this company in many ways, such as congratulating their work anniversaries and providing our staff with complimentary breakfasts, but also by arranging activities and events outside of work.
Along with firm-wide holiday parties and annual social events, we also hold Happy Hours where our attorneys and staff can socialize in a casual and fun environment, where we will also take the time to acknowledge any employees who have resigned after their many years of contributions to our Firm.
Our firm is continuously looking to provide networking opportunities between our attorneys and our clientele. This past year we held two Client Appreciation events where our clients could meet our new hires or talk shop with our seasoned lawyers over complimentary food and drink, as we are always grateful for their continued trust in us.
Running the Extra Mile for Our Clients
BBG is pleased to announce our recent participation in the JPMorgan Chase & Co. 2023 Corporate Challenge! With the support and encouragement of their co-workers, our team successfully completed a 3.5-mile race around Central Park, joining thousands of other competitors representing companies from across NYC. This event served as a true test of endurance and teamwork, and we are proud to say that each team member exceeded expectations.
The proceeds from this race are generously donated to the Central Park Conservancy, supporting their mission to restore, manage, and enhance Central Park. We are thrilled to have had the opportunity to contribute to this worthy cause, and we eagerly anticipate future opportunities to illustrate how our Firm goes the extra mile, in and out of the courtroom!
