The 2024 Lawdragon 100 Global Leaders In Legal Strategy & Consulting

April 12th / LawDragon – We are thrilled to announce The 2024 Lawdragon Global 100 Leaders in Legal Strategy & Consulting.

This is our 10th edition of this guide, whose members have had a dizzying ascent in the past decade as the law transformed utterly and permanently into a global business. This year’s guide salutes the recruiters who build and transform billion-dollar law firms, opening offices in treasured cities helmed by the most coveted talented. Hats off, as well, to the crisis communicators, marketing, PR and list gurus who conjure narratives and brands from mere mortals. At their side are the world’s best management consultants and diversity dynamos, who challenge law firm leaders to not just build bigger, but also better.

A measure of the transformation in the heavyweight status of those who advise law firms can be taken in the transformation of this guide: Just 24 members of the original 100 remain (and those are often as not included as permanent members in our Hall of Fame, denoted below with as asterisk). While that number may be a bit low as the original guide also included legal financiers – who spun off to their own list in 2020 – it’s clear a revolution has occurred.

We selected this guide through our time-honed process of robust (and simple!) submissions; peer review and vetting; and journalistic research. We’ve expanded our purview in recent years, as underscored by the growing rankings from London, in particular, where a breadth of remarkable advisors fuels its golden streets. (Legally speaking.)

This guide is 50 percent female and 18 percent inclusive.
