I have a firm that I like, can they be considered for Your House Counsel® membership?

If we do not already have a firm in their jurisdiction we will be happy to consider them.

What if I have a problem with a Your House Counsel® firm?

In the unlikely event that you have a problem and your problem is not resolved to your satisfaction by the firm, all Member Firms are answerable to the organization.

I  have regional or national needs, why should I choose a Your House Counsel® firm over a regional or national law firm?

In a regional or national firm, you have one relationship Partner in one city who is the point person for your work. While your work is very important to that person and perhaps his or her local office, it is less so to those at branch offices not receiving origination credit for your work. Also, all branch offices are not created equal. The service will generally differ from office to office. With a Your House Counsel® firm each firm has a relationship Partner responsible for and invested in your work. In addition, each firm is vetted to be sure that it is indeed a known quantity in its jurisdiction.
