Client Advisory Board

Providing excellent legal service is ALFA International’s key goal. 

To ensure that ALFA International continues to meet the ever-changing needs of our clients, we have created a group of Client Advisory Boards (CABs).  We are fortunate to have many very active clients who contribute to our on-going success by participating on our CABs. 

As part of these Client Advisory Boards, corporate counsel and claims litigators provide their valuable insight into a wide range of subjects that enables ALFA International members to better serve our clients’ needs, including advice on: 

• Best practices that improve the delivery of legal services to our in-house clients
• Successful client development approaches
• Subject matter for continuing education seminars and publications

We have a Corporate CAB whose members are listed below, who provide guidance to support the totality of the ALFA International network, and CABs that focus on a specific key industry or practice area, including Construction, Hospitality, Insurance, Labor & Employment, Product Liability & Complex Torts, Transportation and Workers’ Compensation.
