Over the course of Overture‘s history leading law firms have approached us for our help with the mammoth task of directory submissions.
With a series of staggered deadlines from the middle of autumn to the beginning of spring, the UK legal directory submission season can be demanding for even the most capable and successful lawyers in the business. So when our clients come to us for help dealing with the process — in some cases with over 100 directory submissions for a single client — we are more than happy to lend a hand.
Planning around the multiple deadlines for legal directories, Legal 500 and Chambers & Partners, both UK and globally we have worked with our client’s lawyers all over the globe to devise personalised schedules that fit in with their busy lives. One-on-one meetings and phone calls provided the opportunity to sift out the most notable and influential cases from the last year and determine the best places to put this information to capture the attention of the researchers and editors. Submission drafts for various categories are read, revised, and if necessary, repurposed, throughout the process to produce the strongest and most engaging submissions and referee sheets possible.
The result is painless and successful legal directory submission process for our clients and the headache of directory submissions taken care of for another year without the tying up of vital internal resources.
