The Legal 500 has released new rankings listing the top 100 law firms for client service. Stewarts features in the top 10, in a survey based on feedback from more than 80,000 law firm clients who were asked a single question – “on a scale of 0-10, how likely are you to recommend this firm?”

Stewarts achieved a score of 79.8% on the new Net Promoter Score (NPS) benchmark based on Legal 500 research.

Managing Partner Stuart Dench commented:

“I’m proud that Stewarts has been recognised as a Top 10 firm for client service by The Legal 500. It’s a testament to the excellent work and client focus across the firm that we have achieved this accolade based on client feedback.”

 

The Client Satisfaction Mark

This year, Stewarts received the newly launch Client Satisfaction Mark from The Legal 500.

Each year, The Legal 500 surveys hundreds of thousands of clients on the ‘Client Service’ they receive from law firms. These ratings alongside their ‘Customer Experience’ ratings together provide a definitive guide to law firm Client Satisfaction.

Alongside the usual rankings, for the first time this year, The Legal 500 acknowledged the top 30% of firms in each jurisdiction for Client Satisfaction.
