Pravo-300 ranking is designed to increase transparency of the Russian legal services market. For more than 10 years, the research has served as a benchmark for assessing the level and professionalism of legal consultants and selecting contractors. The rating methodology is based on the evaluation of project experience of law firms, as well as on clients feedback regarding the level of service and the cost/quality ratio of legal services. To improve the rating mechanisms, an independent Expert Council consisting of heads of legal departments of major Russian and international corporations has been established.
