What are Worldwide Rankings?

Legal 500’s worldwide rankings showcase the best-performing firms around the world in major practice areas, highlighting the most accomplished, consistent and highly regarded performers across legal500.com’s in-depth market coverage.
These rankings are not informed by individual submissions; instead, inclusion is determined by aggregation, analysis and weighting of Legal 500’s existing jurisdictional rankings and research data, complemented by insight from Legal 500’s senior editorial team. This process allows us to identify the leading firms across key multinational markets.
The rankings were first launched in April 2025 and updated in April 2026 based on Legal 500’s updated data and editorial input.
