Every year, a list of the top law firms in the country is compiled, and we find ourselves once again at a time for collating data for the upcoming year. The crux of these Outside Counsel Rankings, unsurprisingly, are the insights provided by arguably the most integral players in the legal industry – the in-house counsel.
Given their unique perspective, in-house attorneys make for valued judges of law firm’s competence and efficiency. Therefore, their testimony on who they hire frequently for routine matters, and which firms they rely on when the stakes are high, carries significant weight.
In an effort to gather these invaluable insights for the 2024 rankings, in-house attorneys are invited to share their experiences via a brief survey. The questionnaire is well-structured to ensure a time-efficient yet comprehensive feedback process. Rest assured, all responses received will be treated as strictly anonymous.
This exercise presents a unique opportunity for in-house counsel, to help shed light on the law firms that are excelling in their service, and perhaps also those who may need to do some introspection. Their individual feedback not only helps in creating a more accurate representation in the rankings, but collectively it could potentially shape the future of legal service delivery.
