Client Choice Methodology
The research methodology for the Client Choice Award relies on nominations from in-house counsel alongside market analysis. Clients are asked to rate individuals on a variety of client service criteria, including commercial awareness, industry knowledge, strategic thinking, value for money, responsiveness, effective communication, clarity of documentation, sharing of expertise, use of technology, and loyalty and ethics. To ensure that the results cannot be influenced, firms are not informed when this initial round of research is conducted.
“We are honoured to have fourteen experts recognised in this year’s Lexology Index Client Choice Report, demonstrating our commitment to exceptional client service. This recognition is a testament to the dedication and expertise of our team, who consistently go above and beyond to add real value to our clients’ businesses.”
