DEI In our Research

We are continually improving our research process based on the latest technology, client needs and sector developments. As Diversity, Equity and Inclusion has increasingly become an essential aspect of what clients look for in law firms, we have made sure our research takes account of this. 

To do so, we collect gender diversity data on ranked lawyers and firm-wide diversity data across a range of diversity markers at firm discretion for all of our guides. This helps us to better understand the demographic make-up of the profession and ensure our rankings are reflective of the breadth of diversity. We also try to ensure we speak to a breadth of lawyers and gather a variety of perspectives in our research to feed into our ranking decisions. You can find out more here.

For this work to be effective, it must be carried out in collaboration with the legal profession. Our research and rankings aim to hold a mirror up to the profession, so to accurately reflect the diversity of the profession we need firms to provide a diverse cohort of attorneys and clients to speak to.  

We have also updated our absence leave policy and issued a tolerance statement and an only official channels policy. You can also find general FAQs about our DEI statement here.
