PROVIDENCE, RI, December 1, 2025 – Partridge Snow & Hahn (PSH), a full-service business law and litigation firm, is proud to announce its recertification in Meritas, a premier global alliance of independent business law firms.
PSH first joined Meritas in 1996, marking nearly three decades of trusted collaboration and excellence within the network. To maintain membership, firms must complete a rigorous recertification process every three years, demonstrating continued adherence to Meritas’ uncompromising quality standards and client service expectations.
The recertification process includes exacting self-assessment, peer review by other law firms and client feedback. It examines such factors as timeliness and quality of a firm’s client service, professional conduct and adherence to Meritas policies including acknowledgement of Meritas firm or client correspondence within 24 hours.
“Our recertification reaffirms PSH’s longstanding commitment to excellence and the trust our clients place in us,” said PSH Co-Managing Partners Paul M. Kessimian and Jay R. Peabody in a joint statement. “For nearly 30 years, our Meritas membership has enabled us to seamlessly connect clients with trusted legal advisors across the globe who share our values, standards, and dedication to quality service. We’re proud to be part of such a highly respected network and look forward to building on our shared success in the years ahead.”
Meritas is the only law firm alliance with an established and comprehensive means of monitoring the quality of its member firms – a process that saves clients time by prequalifying 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, client satisfaction, and high levels of cybersecurity to keep legal information safe. Meritas’ extensive due diligence process ensures that only firms meeting the tenets of Meritas’ unique quality assurance program are allowed to retain membership. The measurement of the firm’s performance, based on input from clients and peers, is reflected in a satisfaction index score, which is available online at Meritas.org.
