The firm has been awarded recertification in Meritas, a global alliance of full service business law firms. Damon Key Leong Kupchak Hastert was invited to join Meritas in 1990, and as a condition of its membership, is required to successfully complete recertification every three
years.
Meritas is the only law firm alliance with an established and comprehensive means of monitoring and enhancing the quality of its member firms—a process that saves clients time in validating law firm credentials and experience. Meritas membership is selective and by invitation only. Firms are regularly assessed and recertified for the breadth of their practice expertise and client satisfaction. The organization’s extensive due diligence process ensures that only firms meeting the tenets of Meritas’ Quality Assurance Program are allowed to maintain membership. Firm performance and quality feedback are reflected in a Satisfaction Index score, which is made available online.
“We are very proud of our firm’s achievements, and look forward to continuing our relationship with Meritas,” said James C. McWhinnie, Executive Committee Member and Director of the firm. “Meritas’ Quality Assurance Program is not just valuable for our clients seeking legal expertise around the world, it also provides us with a framework to consistently monitor and address the quality of the services we provide to our clients.”
