With the legal industry seeing sluggish growth and other headwinds, boutique firms, which specialise in niche practice areas, are expected to weather the storm better than a lot of the full-service corporate/commercial firms. The inaugural ALB Best Boutiques list will highlight firms that are achieving success in their chosen specialism – be it labour law or litigation, technology or tax – and occasionally beating the bigger boys at their own game.

To submit, please fill out the form HERE and email it to Ranajit Dam at ranajit.dam@thomsonreuters.com. The deadline for submissions is Friday, June 30, 2017. 

*Please note that IP boutiques are not eligible. They are instead encouraged to submit for ALB’s IP rankings, which are published in the May issue every year.
