Gaining Inclusion In Our Rankings

There’s no set formula for an individual or firm not currently included in our rankings to gain inclusion in future years.

Perhaps the first step in gaining inclusion is to gain a better understanding of our research methodology.

All research performed by Doyle’s Guide contains a peer-review element and therefore we strongly recommend that those firms seeking to gain inclusion in our rankings reach out to their referral base and/or counsel they may brief to make sure that that when completing our surveys they recommend you.

Finally the overwhelming majority of individuals included in our rankings are “specialists”.  Practitioners with a broad or “general” practice may gain inclusion in our rankings but, as we seek to identify firms and individuals with expertise in a discrete area of the law, it’s typically the case that individuals included in our rankings focus solely (or at least predominantly) in a particular practice area.

Other Profiling Options

Firms and individuals not included in our rankings but still wishing to enhance their online presence and feature on Doyle’s Guide may wish to consider setting up a listing in our Directory.

The Doyle’s Guide Directory is available to any legal professional or law firm and contains both free-to-list and a range of paid profiling options.  It is entirely separate from our rankings of Leading Lawyers, Law Firms and Barristers.

The Directory allows visitors to Doyle’s Guide to search for a lawyer by location and/or practice area. A free listing carries your name, one practice area and your location. Paid listings add your photograph, a link to your website, full contact details, your social profiles, the ability to attach a CV and your Doyle’s Guide recognition banners, and they appear above free listings in search results.

Setting up a listing takes a few minutes. There is no account to create and no password to remember — enter your details and we will email you a link that signs you in whenever you want to make a change.
