Ferguson, managing partner at Doerner. “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 our services.”
The recertification process includes exacting self-assessment, peer review by other law firms and client feedback.
