World’s finest

Primerus seeks out, screens and audits law firms to

make sure that Primerus has only the finest. They

use all the ratings services available, including Legal

500, Best Lawyers, Chambers and Martindale Hubbell,

to ensure the law firms invited to join Primerus are

the best in the world. And that is just the beginning.

Primerus then conducts a more extensive investigation

of the firm, including attorney backgrounds, references

and malpractice history checks. An independent

accreditation board has the last word on admission

and retention of members, resulting in a high quality

standard that’s applied universally to all members.

Another board oversees quality assurance to more

specifically define the highest standards and to help

firms live by those standards in everyday practice.

These strict guidelines ensure Primerus law firms are

the world’s finest. In fact, The Wall Street Journal has

compared Primerus to the “Good Housekeeping Seal

of Approval” for law firms.
