Daniel Curto and Melissa Nott Davis were cited by the Massachusetts Bar Association Lawyers Journal (June 2009) for their leadership of the pro bono effort in the Firm's Boston office, as recognized when the Bar Association gave McDermott its Access to Justice Pro Bono Law Firm Award. Harvey Freishtat, who accepted the award on behalf of the Firm, said of McDermott's extensive pro bono activity: "Much of the impetus of what we have done Firm-Wide originated out of our Boston office. We are committed to serving public interests."

Daniel Curto and Melissa Nott Davis, co-chairs of McDermott's Boston Office Pro Bono & Community Service Committee, were featured in a May 2009 Massachusetts Bar Association Lawyers Journal story about the office's selection to receive the Massachusetts Bar Association's Access to Justice Pro Bono Award. More than half of the Firm's Boston office lawyers do 50 or more hours of pro bono work a year, and 87 percent have some pro bono activity. Mr. Curto said the office's support for pro bono work "empowers our folks to find something they really love, and this has hade it a great success." He added that "we have a handful of pro bono partners [organizations] that we work closely with, but we don't limit our attorneys to working with them. We look to expand our partnerships as appropriate."
