MOUNTAINSIDE, N.J. — The legal department of Shell Oil Co. was recently presented with the third annual Magna Stella Pro Bono Award from The Texas Access to Justice Commission in conjunction with the Texas General Counsel Forum, Metrocorpcounsel.com reported.
The award recognizes Shell’s legal department for its efforts to promote pro bono legal services within the organization and within the corporate structure at large. Thomas J. Brandt, associate general counsel, accepted the award on behalf of the Shell’s legal department during the awards dinner held in San Antonio.
Shell’s attorneys have volunteered to handle pro bono cases through the Houston Volunteer Lawyers Program for nearly 25 years. The company was also one of the first corporations to become an Equal Access Champion under the Houston Bar Association’s Equal Access to Justice Initiative, a program that challenges corporations to handle pro bono cases for low-income residents annually for five year, the Web site stated. Working in conjunction with the program, Shell has contributed its legal expertise to an approximate average of 100 pro bono cases per year, according to the Web site.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
