"As a reminder, our survey asked more than 500 in-house attorneys to tell us which firms their organization engages for legal services and indicate the highest level of legal work for which they engage the firms. The levels of work were defined along a four-point scale: Cost-efficient, bulk tasks Routine matters High-value, complex matters "Bet-the-company" matters The ratings for each firm were averaged and the law firms with the highest scores made it into our list of the Top Outside Counsel. We also drew up industry-specific rankings based on the sectors represented by the in-house lawyers surveyed."
"For our organization rankings, we segmented the responses based on the type of organization in which the respondents work to compile lists of the highest-rated firms among eight groups: Fortune 250 Companies Fortune 500 Companies Fortune 1000 Companies Other Public Companies Large Private Companies (with 1,000+ employees) Midsize Private Companies (with 100-1,000 employees) Small Private Companies (with fewer than 100 employees) Nonprofit Institutions"
More than 500 in-house attorneys identified which law firms their organizations engage and rated the highest level of legal work on a four-point scale: cost-efficient bulk tasks; routine matters; high-value, complex matters; and "bet-the-company" matters. Firm ratings were averaged and the highest-scoring firms were named to the Top Outside Counsel list. Industry-specific rankings were also produced. Organization rankings segmented respondents by eight organization types ranging from Fortune 250 companies to nonprofit institutions. Sidley Austin appears on six organization lists; Kirkland & Ellis and Latham & Watkins appear on four lists each; Cooley, DLA Piper and Morgan Lewis appear on three lists.
