Stradley Ronon serves clients' needs across the country and around the world through our unique relationship with Meritas - the world's largest association of independent business and commercial litigation firms.
We are the only Eastern Pennsylvania member of Meritas. Meritas members are accepted by invitation only and must go through a rigorous screening process. Members must also agree to adhere to policies and a code of ethics that often go beyond local professional guidelines.
Our Meritas association offers us access to a network of 170 firms located in more than 60 countries and encompassing 5,700 lawyers. Meritas gives Stradley Ronon a virtual "presence" in every major city and business center worldwide, without the costs associated with branch office operations.
Here are some benefits our clients enjoy through our Meritas affiliation:
- A broadcast fax/e-mail system, where we can pose questions to our colleagues around the United States simply, quickly and inexpensively. We use this system whenever a client needs advice in several jurisdictions or in a unique area of law.
- Access to in-depth knowledge of local laws and business practices.
- The ability to cooperate with our out-of-state firms who maintain the same high standards of quality of service as we do.
Of most importance, Meritas allows Stradley Ronon instant office capabilities in every geographic market in which our clients maintain a significant business presence. |
