Your ability to understand your client’s business is the single best differentiator in the legal market today. This understanding is also the single biggest reason clients pay a premium rate. Clients receive substantially more value when law firms see the risk and the issues from the client’s point of view.
Your firm also benefits from building a comprehensive understanding of your client’s business. A deep understanding positions you to be the first to tackle the defining issues your client faces, and provide more pointed, targeted, and relevant advice than competitors.
Corporate counsel rank the following law firms as best at Understanding Your Client’s Business in the just-released BTI Client Service A-Team 2017. Please join us congratulating these firms on this well-earned honor:
