🎉 Celebrating Meritas Members' Three Decades of Excellence! 🎉 We are delighted to honor the outstanding tenure of our Meritas members, who have been contributors to our global legal network for over 30 years. Since joining Meritas, Swanson Bernard, based in Kansas City, Missouri, USA, has witnessed a remarkable evolution in its clientele, marked by increasing sophistication and international reach. What sets Swanson Bernard apart is its ability to grow alongside its clients, providing tailored legal solutions without the overhead and bureaucracy often associated with larger firms. Through Meritas, the firm has forged invaluable partnerships with trusted counterparts, ensuring seamless collaboration and expert guidance for its clients on a global scale. Clients have come to understand that, through Meritas, a problem can be solved early in the process by making a connection with a firm that can advise as to the local impacts of potential choices. Meritas has been instrumental in resolving numerous critical matters for Swanson Bernard over the past three decades. To name just one example, when a sports team was scheduled for an internationally televised game outside of the U.S., the weather had been quite wet the days before the game. Swanson Bernard called the local Meritas firm on game day to get immediate advice as to the legal risks of playing the game with the field conditions, enabling the client to make an informed decision 10 minutes later about whether the game should be played. As we celebrate Meritas Month, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to all member law firms that have played an indispensable role in shaping the success of our network. Here's to embracing the next 30 years with continued excellence and collaborative partnership! James Freeman Daniel Hiatt Tim Haverty #MeritasMonth #IndependentButUnited #MeritasGlobal
