Our firm is a member of the International Society of Primerus Law Firms, a highly selective society of the world’s finest independent boutique law firms. The International Society of Primerus Law Firms (Primerus) is a society of top-rated, independent, boutique law firms that have earned the right to display the Primerus seal of quality. As one of the most respected law firm societies, Primerus has become the size of some of the world’s largest law firms.
Our Primerus membership distinguishes us from other Boston law firms our size. We know we can refer our clients to competent, experienced Primerus attorneys throughout the world, and this gives us a competitive edge in the market. Our membership in Primerus provides our clients with immediate access to nearly 200 law firms in jurisdictions throughout the world that share our ideas of professionalism and dedication. We have personally met with members of most Primerus firms and have been extremely impressed with their professionalism, knowledge of the law, and experience level.
Primerus is growing at an unprecedented pace, and is expanding throughout the U.S., Asia, Europe, Middle East, Africa, Latin America, and the Caribbean. With thousands of lawyers in the society, Primerus members, collectively, offer the breadth of expertise and jurisdictional coverage that only the world’s largest law firms can offer to their clients, but at more reasonable rates.
Law firms in the U.S. and Canada must be AV-rated using the Martindale-Hubbell peer review service. For firms outside of North America, consideration is given to respected resources, such as, Chambers Global Guide, Legal 500 EMEA, and IFLR 1000. From this elite group, Primerus conducts an extensive additional screening process. Primerus asks judges, fellow lawyers on both sides of the bar, current and former clients, bar associations and insurance carriers for candid assessments of the prospective members’ quality of work, commitment to professional ethics and civility. Additionally, once approved for membership, every Primerus firm is audited, annually, to ensure that the legal services they provide to clients are of a consistent high quality, year after year. Each member is committed to the following standards: Integrity, Excellent Work Product, Reasonable Fees, Continuing Legal Education, Civility and Community Service.
