Top Performing Law Firms – What are they doing differently?

Overview

Exclusive business advisory data, benchmarks & reporting to help Law Firms achieve top performance at every stage of their business life cycle.

Law firms are high-value clients for compliance, advisory & wealth management solutions.

New Top Performer insights will help advisers add value to existing client relationships & create a point of difference to attract new Law Firm clients.

Profitability is the highest industry concern & has the biggest performance variance.

Practice planning is essential to become an industry top performer.

Only 12% of Law Firm partners/directors describe practice planning as excellent, with actively managed plans in place. Practical industry Top Performer insights will improve planning outcomes & boost profitability.

These insights include fair market valuation multiples. Proposed CGT changes are expected to increase demand for Law Firm valuations. One advisory service that relies on a compliant valuation is Internal Business Succession Planning (IBSP).
