Develop Compelling & Engaging Research Instrument
We distill your objectives, priorities, and sensitivities to develop an engaging and insightful research instrument based on our exclusive benchmarking data which provides the most robust insight into your clients’ thinking.
Conduct Compelling Research with Clients
Our interview is designed to be as engaging for your clients as it is compelling for you. We understand interviews are a branding experience for the firm and will ensure each client is impressed with the questions, process, and thoughtful approach. We use 4 types of questions:
- Structured: allows for unprompted, unaided responses
- Quantitative: attainable analytics & metrics
- Forward-looking: anticipation of changes in client expectations
- Experience-based: pinpointing actual client behavior (often differs from stated behavior).

Top legal decision makers see the above client service activities as interrelated. In addition, the activities in the upper right quadrant impact all the others.
How We Help Our Clients
The best performing law firms in the world can’t get enough client feedback.
Law firms use third parties, leadership and relationship partners, and online surveys to obtain, analyze and put client feedback to work—to improve client service while building substantial amounts of new business. Global law firms know client feedback is essential for current and future performance.
One thing we’ve learned in our 30 years: it’s easy to ask the wrong questions. Even easier to get the wrong answers. We know which questions really work, the clichéd questions to avoid, and how to go off script when clients take you places you really need to go. This makes the interview as engaging for your client as it is compelling for you.
Our innovative programs help you achieve granular, actionable, and high-impact insights, plus a world-class branding experience for your clients with our compelling interviews. You also get engaged, driven, and empowered partners who go out and build better client relationships.
Our programs allow you to draw on the most robust insights into your client’s thinking and immediately leverage this strategic tool and give your firm a clear path to help drive growth and boost performance:
