outside-counsel-rankings-2024-01As we complete the rollout of our 2024 Outside Counsel Rankings, we focus this week on the law firms rated highest by in-house counsel at specific types of organizations. 

As a reminder, our survey asked more than 500 in-house attorneys to tell us which firms their organization engages for legal services and indicate the highest level of legal work for which they engage the firms. The levels of work were defined along a four-point scale:

  1. Cost-efficient, bulk tasks
  2. Routine matters
  3. High-value, complex matters
  4. “Bet-the-company” matters

The ratings for each firm were averaged and the law firms with the highest scores made it into our list of the Top Outside Counsel. We also drew up industry-specific rankings based on the sectors represented by the in-house lawyers surveyed. 

For our organization rankings, we segmented the responses based on the type of organization in which the respondents work to compile lists of the top five highest-rated firms among three groups: 

  • Fortune 500 Companies
  • Large Private Companies (with 1,000+ employees)
  • Nonprofit Institutions

Interestingly, each list is unique, with no firm appearing on more than one. To see which law firms rated highest among each group, view the new rankings here.
