Although the requirements for it always depend on the company, the client and the set goals, Garner has created ​​a set of universal rules that can help improve any legal text. The editors of Pravo.ru chose nine key rules, and consulted with Russian specialists as to how best to implement them.

Pravo.Ru-300: Among strangers – why Russian law firms do not lead in international rankings

In creating the first national ranking of law firms – the Pravo.Ru-300, analysts discovered a curious fact – the results of their market research of Russian law firms gave a very different picture from that painted by international rating agencies, where the traditional leaders are the ILFs (International Law Firms), while the RULFs (Russian Law Firms) are given much more modest spots. And indeed, many successful law practices were not even mentioned in these ratings. The editorial staff at Pravo.Ru decided to look into this matter and make a detailed investigation of the procedures used when developing international rankings.
