Membership Requirements

Firms, in most instances, may not be in other international legal networks deemed competitive with Ally Law.
Members should have a broadly-based corporate business and litigation practice with demonstrated expertise in international business matters.
Firms should be substantial in their jurisdiction, with significant partner involvement and oversight in staff, work product and client matters.
Ally Law member contacts must be fully proficient in written and spoken English.
Members must hold appropriate professional liability insurance for their jurisdiction.
Firms must demonstrate ongoing commitment to Ally Law, including participation in annual and regional meetings, timely payment of dues and prompt response to referrals from other firms.

Interested in Joining Ally Law?

We invite firms to complete an application. Once the application has been reviewed, we will schedule a Zoom conference or onsite meeting with firm leaders for an in-depth interview.

Next, the firm should attend a membership meeting if both parties want to move forward with the membership process.

Finally, our Expansion Committee and our Executive Committee review the firm’s candidacy and decide on membership.
