The Pravo.ru-300 rating is designed to increase the transparency of the Russian legal services market. For more than10 years, it has served as a benchmark in assessing the level and quality of law firms and a selection of contractors. The auditor of the rating for the seventh consecutive year is the international company Deloitte.

The ratings are based on an assessment of the recent work of the law firms, as well as client reviews on the level of service and the cost and quality of legal services. To improve rating mechanisms, an independent Expert Council has been created, consisting of the heads of legal departments of large Russian and international corporations.
