Roses are red,
Violets are blue.
Your attorneys want recognition,
And we want that for them too!
Okay. Writing holiday poems may not be our strong suit.
But you know what is? Helping our legal clients find the award programs best suited for their expertise and goals.

Two years ago we published our original Chambers and Partners 101 blog post.
Does the memory echo like a gong throughout your bones?
I lean towards the dramatic because deciding to submit to Chambers can feel dramatic. And my goal is certainly not to peer pressure you to submit.
Not all law firms have the bandwidth to support the robust submissions required by Chambers, which is why many of our clients submit for the first time with our support. We recommend pursuing a Chambers ranking to clients because it’s considered one of the most weighty of law firm recognitions by in-house counsel.

Class is back in session!
It’s been a minute, but I’m back to pontificate about the wonders that are legal awards and recognitions.
Did ya miss me?
(If you’ve been studying up, you know we’ve already chatted about The Legal 500, Law360, Super Lawyers, The Best Lawyers in America and Chambers.)
Okay, with a dash more seriousness: There are pages upon pages of legal recognitions that I’m sure you get spammed with often. Some pop up on social feeds while others have a more personalized touch by sliding into your inbox and addressing you by name.
We’re here to help separate the grit from the gold.
One legal award ranking that always makes our short list is Benchmark Litigation.

There are more legal rankings and award opportunities than degrees on our summer thermostats.
And while some are legitimate recognitions for your law firm and attorneys, many are money grabs that give way more of an “aWaRdS” vibe — they aren’t worth your time and truly don’t serve to provide a distinction.
Now, we don’t want to come across as too negative. There are many legal awards we highly recommend for clients (Chambers, The Legal 500, Super Lawyers and The Best Lawyers are some of our favorites).
Today we are exploring Law360 awards and rankings, and why we think they are worth the non-billable hours for your firm.

We love legal rankings. It’s true.
We love a lot of normal loveable things, like dogs and books and hot coffee. But we may be unique in our affinity for keeping tabs on the best legal rankings in the game and sharing that information with our clients.
In the past, we’ve chatted in depth about Chambers and Partners, Best Lawyers and Super Lawyers.
Today’s star is The Legal 500.
Warm up your coffee ’cause here we go!
(Note: We refreshed this blog post in November 2023 to reflect new insights from The Legal 500 and common questions they hear.)

After a brief hiatus to cover all things LinkedIn company pages, we’re returning our focus to our “law firms submissions 101” series, where we review everything you need to know about the top legal rankings and awards programs.
When we last left our heroes, we had just learned all about Chambers and the nitty-gritty details covering the lengthy submission process, as well as the ins and outs of Best Lawyers.
This month we are investigating (dramatic drum roll pleaseeeee) Super Lawyers!

We love legal rankings.
Well. Let me rephrase.
We love legal rankings that are worth your time, and also carry credibility when awarded.
Recently, we did a deep dive into why we are fans of Chambers..
Another legal ranking we recommend? Best Lawyers®.
On our Spill the Ink podcast, Michelle chatted with Elizabeth Petit, Director of Research and Development, and Managing Editor at Best Lawyers. I listened to their conversation a few times (because I’m a big fan of the podcast and it was chock-full of incredible information), and have boiled down the highlights for you here!

While attending a conference used to mean skiving off work for a few days to listen to industry-specific keynotes with boutique coffee in your hand, these days … not so much.
Conferences are now being held entirely online, with participants watching presentations on one screen while checking in with work on another. This is all before we take into account that the farthest most of us can travel these days is to our porch.
So even if you’re a rare unicorn of a human who can focus entirely on days worth of online presentations, odds are you are sharing your space with a partner, enthusiastic pet or homebound children.
This doesn’t mean you should throw in the towel.

Reputation Ink works with a lot of clients on their social media posts. From drafting to advising, we are always happy to get social.
In our experience, a lot of law firms are weary of spending potentially billable hours on managing social accounts. How important is social media really when it comes to your law firm’s business?
Well, short story: Very.
Whether we like it or not, social media is a huge driver of communication. And new business.
