ESG Services

Impact Business Law wants to be a part of your ESG (Environmental, Social & Governance) journey. We will work with you to develop your ESG roadmap and implement it. This is part coaching (you are the expert), part legal consulting (we advise), part legal services (we draft policies and other documents in specific areas), and part referrals (we point you to other resources).

ESG Policy Basics 

ESG Journey Roadmap.JPG

Crafting meaningful Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) or Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) policies for your small business doesn’t have to feel daunting. Starting with the basics, these policies cover essential areas like governance, environmental practices, and social responsibility, such as employment guidelines and community engagement. But it doesn't stop there – we'll guide you in customizing your policies to fit your business's unique needs. 

​​

We understand that for small businesses, ongoing policy management can feel overwhelming. That's why we'll help you establish clear timelines and processes for continual assessment and improvement. By working together, you can meet not only external expectations but also make a positive impact on your community and the environment. Let us support you in navigating the world of CSR and ESG policies, making it simple and effective for your small business.

B Corp Status - Is it right for your company?

Join the movement of businesses reshaping the landscape by prioritizing social and environmental impact alongside profits. Certified B Corporations™ (B Corps) lead this shift, adhering to rigorous standards of performance, transparency, and legal accountability. Embarking on the journey to B Corp Certification isn't just about compliance; it's about unlocking a host of advantages that can redefine your business trajectory. Beyond mere differentiation, the B Corp seal signifies a commitment to values beyond profit-driven strategies, setting your company apart in the marketplace.
