The Legal 500 FAQs

Legal 500’s new 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 multi-national markets.

Our initial release focuses on 11 major practice areas. Future releases later this year will expand that coverage further into additional areas of expertise.
