Our firm is a member of Meritas, the world’s largest affiliation of independent law firms. Meritas firms are located in over 250 cities worldwide, and include more than 4,885 attorneys representing a broad array of legal practice areas, with an emphasis on commercial and business law. Each Meritas firm must go through a rigorous selection and pre-screening process before becoming a member. Meritas also continues to monitor member firms and the referrals between the firms to determine client satisfaction with the services rendered. The criteria for membership include medium size relative to the firm’s market, a full-service commercial/business practice, an established commitment to high quality client service, and a firm belief in alternative dispute resolution.

Membership in Meritas allows our firm to remain actively involved in the representation of our clients regardless of the jurisdiction in which that representation must be pursued. We work closely with, and provide whatever supervision may be necessary to, the Meritas attorneys who are retained to handle the local representation of the client. This arrangement provides the client with national and international legal representation while working with and through SS+D attorneys.
