Social Commitment
At Tinoco, Travieso, Planchart & Núñez, we firmly believe that legal practice carries a social responsibility. Aware of the challenges many Venezuelans face in accessing justice, we have embraced an institutional commitment to actively and consistently support the protection of the rights of vulnerable individuals through pro bono legal services.
We maintain a formal pro bono legal assistance policy, dedicating weekly attorney hours to social interest cases. This work is carried out at the Don Bosco Social Complex in Altamira, in partnership with Asociación Damas Salesianas, a nonprofit organization providing medical, educational, and community support services to disadvantaged populations. Our participation in these spaces strengthens the direct impact of law as a tool for transformation and equity.
Additionally, our firm participated in the “Law Goes to School” program, an educational initiative led by the Justice Resource Center of New York City and Civitas Venezuela, aimed at introducing Venezuelan students to basic human rights and legal knowledge. Our firm also provides free legal advice to various nonprofit organizations, helping them fulfill their social and educational missions more effectively.
