At Primerus, integrity is the root of everything we do. Helping restore integrity to the legal profession is the reason we were founded, and integrity is one of our members' shared values - called the Six Pillars.
We think it's the single most important quality a law firm must embody - and research shows that integrity is the number-one quality clients are looking for in an attorney. To us, integrity means we can be trusted. And we think trust should be the basis of every attorney-client relationship.
When Primerus was founded in 1992, its original members had regrettably witnessed many of the great values of the legal profession being tarnished. So they set out to do something about it.
They were innovators, working to reform the profession they loved by setting high standards and committing to following them every day. Today, Primerus and its member firms are still driven by innovation as they work to develop new, more efficient and more effective ways to practice law, meet their clients' needs and embody the dignity of the profession they love.
Primerus firms must meet the highest standards for the profession, proving they are leaders in their areas of expertise.
Firms must submit to a rigorous evaluation process which includes candid assessments from judges, fellow attorneys, current and former clients, bar associations and malpractice insurance carriers. Firms must also attest to their commitment to the exacting standards of the Six Pillars of Primerus Quality: Integrity, Excellent Work Product, Reasonable Fees, Continuing Legal Education, Civility and Community Service. And it doesn't end there. Primerus firms are audited annually to ensure that they continue to be the 'best of the best."
Primerus makes the world a little smaller for firms and clients alike. Primerus law
firms are located in over 100 cities throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico,
the United Kingdom, Europe and Asia.
We provide the personalized service of a small firm with a global connection.
The Primerus worldwide scope allows top quality law firms from around the world
to efficiently work together in an increasingly global economy offering seamless
service to clients, wherever their legal needs may be. For corporate clients, we
help members find a lawyer in multiple jurisdictions. Because
of their knowledge of the personal and professional qualifications of fellow member lawyers,
Primerus attorneys are able to refer clients to other Primerus attorneys with confidence.
Primerus law firms pride themselves on providing high-quality legal services for
reasonable fees. Working with independent small or medium-size law firms offers distinct advantages.
Our top lawyers have depth of knowledge and expertise in hundreds of specialties and subspecialties.
We offer personalized attention, excellent responsiveness, extensive legal experience and enduring
relationships without the sky-high fees associated with most large law firms.
