BENCHMARK LITIGATION SUBMISSIONS
Secure The Recognition Your Litigation Team Deserves.
Reputation Ink helps litigation-focused law firms navigate the full Benchmark process with clarity, precision and a deep understanding of what matters to the publication’s editorial team.
Benchmark Litigation is the definitive guide to the nation’s leading litigation firms and lawyers.
With its rigorous, research-driven process and exclusive focus on disputes, a Benchmark Litigation ranking serves as a powerful signal of your firm’s credibility, excellence and influence in the litigation market.
But in a crowded field of hundreds of submitting firms, a strong submission — one that stands out to both researchers and readers — takes more than internal enthusiasm and a list of wins.
Why Benchmark Litigation Matters
Unlike other legal directories, Benchmark is fully focused on litigation and takes a journalistic approach to its rankings. Researchers conduct interviews with law firm partners and client referees, evaluate public coverage and look beyond the submission to assess market presence and influence.
A ranking in Benchmark signals that your firm — and your litigators — are operating at the top of their game. It influences referrals, supports business development and affirms the quality of your trial bench in a highly competitive space.
