Foley Hoag LLP has once again achieved a perfect score ranking on the Human Rights Campaign's 2025 Corporate Equality Index. Businesses receiving a rating of 100 percent in the report are recognized by the Human Rights Campaign as a “Best Place to Work for LGBTQ+ Equality.”

  • supporting an inclusive culture; and
  • corporate social responsibility.
