THE BTI CLIENT SERVICE A-TEAM 2024

The Survey of Law Firm Client Service Performance

The BTI Client Service A-Team 2024 sets the standard…

…to assess how law firms honestly stack up in client service delivery.

The analysis is based on 17 objective ranking factors—all of which corporate counsel agree drive the strongest relationships with law firms.

This is the only report:

Sharing detailed and granular rankings on each of the 17 activities clients rely on to gauge law firm client service performance

Long considered the gold standard in ranking and measuring law firm client service performance — now in its 23rd year

Used by more than 200 law firms and 16,000 corporate counsel

To learn exactly where your law firm stands on client service. Clients identify and rank law firm client service performance in rich, robust and granular detail

Law firms' client service just fell into a big black hole.

(and the way out is getting murkier)

The firms who don’t see this breakdown in client service — and act on it — to make sure it gets better — are going to lose out to the firms who do. Boosting client service has never carried more weight or influence on clients — and the definition keeps changing.

It's easy to blame the economy — or even overhiring. But...

The law firms delivering superior client service are crushing it

— and will continue to crush it. It is easier to keep upping your client service game if you are already good.

Law firms see their client service drop as they are:

  • Busy looking for and integrating lateral partners
  • Navigating the economy
  • Cutting back on marketing and business development
  • Unintentionally deemphasizing client service
  • Not investing as much as law firms serving the same clients

Corporate counsel playing a key role in transformation

The cost of mediocre client service to corporate counsel increased more than law firms' rates ever have.

The collapse in client service is an excellent setup for amazing success or expensive failure. But the opportunity and benefit to make clients’ lives easier had never been bigger.

Use this report to get to and stay at the top of the client service — and growth — game.
