Past submissions’ feedback

Is your team disappointed that after years of hard work you are not getting the expected results?

The submission process can be time-consuming and frustrating, especially if, after spending valuable resources on it, you don’t get a ranking either in Chambers and Partners, The Legal 500 or any other international directory.

We understand how important it is for your firm’s reputation and positioning to obtain a well-deserved place in the most competitive tables. That is why we can help you to move forward by understanding past actions that might have influenced your current position in one of the bands or tiers.

Obtaining a ranking is not a straight-forward process. Presenting your submission and referees’ spreadsheet does not guarantee a ranking, and it can take up to three years in some cases to achieve a first-time position in the tables, if your team has what it takes.

Following our clients’ feedback, we have introduced a new service at Legal Directories Consultancy by Gericó Associates, that aims to shed some light and find the reasons why an application hasn’t been yet successful.

Working side by side with your marketing team and managing partners, we will analyse the type of work the department is carrying out and how active it has been in the last 12 months, then reviewing your past year’s submission to find any inconsistencies.

Throughout our consultancy service, we will define goals and, depending on the firm’s requirements, we can upgrade our services into our Comprehensive consultancy or Submissions’ reviewing. We are flexible!

The service includes:

• Analysis of work carried out in the past 12 months
• Reviewing of the submission presented to the directory of choice in a certain practice area
• Reviewing of referees chosen
• Following-up with the relevant directory, if necessary
