After 50 years, can we keep our edge?
Can we keep innovating?
Can we continue to lead?
Can we get better?
Piece of cake.
Celebrating 50 years of finding the truth. The truth is, being an industry leader is never easy. In our 50 years, S-E-A has pretty much done it all. Forensic engineering and investigation. Vehicle testing and safety. Consumer product testing and health sciences. Just to name a few. And we do it all with the best talent and technology in the business. So, yeah. We’ll blow out some candles. And we’ll eat some cake. Then we’ll get back to working on the next 50 years. TH

ABOUT USLAW NETWORK
2001. The Start of Something Better.
Mega-firms...big, impersonal bastions of legal tradition, encumbered by bureaucracy and often slow to react. The need for an alternative was obvious. A vision of a network of smaller, regionally based, independent firms with the capability to respond quickly, efficiently and economically to client needs from Atlantic City to Pacific Grove was born. In its infancy, it was little more than a possibility, discussed around a small table and dreamed about by a handful of visionaries. But the idea proved too good to leave on the drawing board. Instead, with the support of some of the country’s brightest legal minds, USLAW NETWORK became a reality.
Fast-forward to today.
The commitment remains the same as originally envisioned. To provide the highest quality legal representation and seamless cross-jurisdictional service to major corporations, insurance carriers, and to both large and small businesses alike, through a network of professional, innovative law firms dedicated to their client’s legal success. Now as a diverse network with more than 6,000 attorneys from more than 60 independent, full practice firms with roots in civil litigation across the U.S., Canada, Latin America and Asia, and with affiliations with TELFA in Europe, USLAW NETWORK remains aresponsive, agile legal alternative to the mega-firms.
Home Field Advantage.
USLAW NETWORK offers what it calls The Home Field Advantage which comes from knowing and understanding the venue in a way that allows a competitive advantage – a truism in both sports and business. Jurisdictional awareness is a key ingredient to successfully operating throughout the United States and abroad. Knowing the local rules, the judge, and the local business and legal environment provides our firms’ clients this advantage. The strength and power of an international presence combined with the understanding of a respected local firm makes for a winning line-up.
A Legal Network for Purchasers of Legal Services.
USLAW NETWORK firms go way beyond providing quality legal services to their clients. Unlike other legal networks, USLAW is organized around client expectations, not around the member law firms. Clients receive ongoing educational opportuni-
ties, online resources including webinars, jurisdictional updates, and resource libraries. We also provide a quarterly USLAW Magazine, compendiums of law, as well as annual membership directory. To ensure our goals are the same as the clients our member firms serve, our Client Leadership Council and Practice Group Client Advisors are directly involved in the development of our programs and services. This communication pipeline is vital to our success and allows us to better monitor and meet client needs and expectations.
USLAW in Review.
USLAW Abroad.
The reality of our success is simple: we succeed because our member firms’ clients succeed. Our member firms provide high-quality legal results through the efficient use of legal budgets. We provide cross-jurisdictional services eliminating the time and expense of securing adequate representation in different regions. We provide trusted and experienced specialists quickly.
Just as legal issues seldom follow state borders, they often extend beyond U.S. boundaries as well. In 2007, USLAW established a relationship with the TransEuropean Law Firms Alliance (TELFA), a network of more than 20 independent law firms representing more than 1000 lawyers through Europe to further our service and reach.
How USLAW NETWORK Membership is Determined.
Firms are admitted to the NETWORK by invitation only and only after they are fully vetted through a rigorous review process. Many firms have been reviewed over the years, but only a small percentage were eventually invited to join. The search for quality member firms is a continuous and ongoing effort. Firms admitted must possess broad commercial legal capabilities and have substantial litigation and trial experience. In addition, USLAW NETWORK members must subscribe to a high level of service standards and are continuously evaluated to ensure these standards of quality and expertise are met.

• All vetted firms with demonstrated, robust practices and specialties • Efficient use of legal budgets, providing maximum return on legal services investments • Seamless, cross-jurisdictional service • Responsive and flexible • Multitude of educational opportunities and online resources • Team approach to legal services
The USLAW Success Story.
When a difficult legal matter emerges – whether it’s in a single jurisdiction, nationwide or internationally – USLAW is there. Success. For more information, please contact Roger M. Yaffe, USLAW CEO, at (800) 231-9110 or roger@uslaw.org

MEMBER SINCE 2001
Snyder Burnett Egerer, LLP is an AV rated firm which concentrates its practice on the defense and prosecution of civil litigation matters. The firm handles matters in state and federal courts throughout Central and Southern California, primarily for self-insured clients. Our very active trial practice includes actions in personal injury, premises liability, professional malpractice, business and complex litigation, employment law, products/drug liability, environmental, toxic tort, property, land use and development. Because the firm is staffed with trial lawyers, discovery does not involve “turning over every rock” and then billing the client for the effort. Rather, we direct discovery and investigation to the issues that will move the case toward resolution. If the case does not settle, we relish protecting our client’s rights at trial. The firm’s trial record is enviable – a winning percentage of over 85% for over 300 jury trials in the past decade.
MEMBER SINCE 2015
Hanson Bridgett has more than 160 attorneys in four offices throughout northern California. Our practices encompass traditional areas of law such as general business and corporate law, litigation, real estate and construction, public sector law, estate planning and administration, as well as major practice groups that focus on government representation, sustainable business, technology, health care, senior housing and care, intellectual property, and labor and employment. These areas are supplemented by refined expertise in such specialized and diverse fields as eminent domain, product liability, transportation, environmental law, and insurance recovery. A certified B Corp, we are driven by a commitment to diversity, charitable giving, sustainability, pro bono legal work, and hands-on service. FIRM CONTACTS

MEMBER SINCE 2015
Cooch and Taylor, established in 1960, has long been regarded as one of Delaware’s best litigation firms. The firm’s attorneys spend a significant amount of time in the courtroom and have achieved many significant bench and jury verdicts, but recognize that to the vast majority of clients, success is defined by getting the best possible outcome long before a jury is ever seated. Delaware’s judiciary has a reputation as one of the best in the country based on factors such as judicial competence, treatment of litigation and timeliness. As a result, Delaware’s judges have strict expectations for all counsel appearing before them and Cooch and Taylor has over half a century of experience in ensuring its clients and co-counsel meet those expectations.

Carr Allison is one of the fastest growing firms in the Southeast. Clients say we are growing because of our lifelong ties to the cities in Alabama, Florida and Mississippi where our offices are located. When facing litigation exposure in Mississippi, clients hear horror stories involving the imposition of punitive damages. We like to think we “wrote the book” on the subject of punitive damages in Mississippi. Senior partner Doug Bagwell has been active in the Mississippi Gulf Coast bench and bar community having tried more than 100 cases to conclusion. With additional resources of more than 120 lawyers in Alabama, Florida and Mississippi, our Gulfport attorneys stand ready to serve local, regional, national and international clients faced with legal exposure in southern Mississippi.

MehaffyWeber was founded in 1946 as a litigation firm. As our clients’ needs expanded, we evolved into a broad-based law firm, still with a strong litigation emphasis. We tailor our approaches to best suit the client’s individual needs. We are proud to have a long record of winning cases in tough jurisdictions, but we know that not all cases need to be tried. We use legal motions and other means to achieve positive results pre-trial, and when appropriate, we work hand in hand with our clients to secure advantageous settlements. Today, we continue to believe that hard work, ethical and innovative approaches are core values that result in success for the firm and our clients. FIRM CONTACTS

While we thrive under incredible challenges and difficult circumstances, we also care deeply about the people we work with and represent.

In 2007, USLAW established a mutual relationship with TELFA, the Trans-European Law Firms Alliance, a network of more than 20 independent law firms in Europe representing more than 1,000 lawyers. TELFA was established in 1990. The members meet regularly to discuss issues of major importance to their clients. The TELFA model is based on the recognition that smaller practices with low overheads, high flexibility and local expertise are more suited on a continent composed of a majority of smaller markets. Its member firms respond effectively to local situations and cultures without the inefficiencies in the large international law firm model. TELFA has built an impressive reputation which attracts high-caliber firms. Many of its current members are firms which are quoted in Chambers Global Guide, Chambers UK, A Client’s Guide to the Legal Profession as well as The Legal 500 recommended law firms and lawyers worldwide directory, Legal 500 EMEA and Martindale Hubbell. Each member has built an outstanding reputation in its own jurisdiction as a leading commercial law firm, sharing an international focus to its practice. Membership is systematically reviewed for quality through members’ and clients’ feedback and apart from simply being good practitioners, members are also expected to demonstrate their commitment to the alliance. USLAW’s affiliation with TELFA offers USLAW member firms and their clients access to top-quality, qualified counsel in Europe.
