Market Pricing Data

Most law firms price on instinct not from informed research. Our Pricing Intelligence clients are able to set fees based on accurate market intelligence, confidently explain and justify charges and price consistently with their firm’s wider strategies. 

"Having just entered our firms' data (April 2014), I can see that the resulting report is going to be invaluable in helping us to take the guesswork out of setting hourly rates. When even £10 an hour across many fee earners can have a profound effect on the bottom line, I don't know why someone hasn't thought to do this before. It’s a smart idea which should be of real benefit to participants." Roland Millar, Head of Finance, Thomson Snell & Passmore, Tunbridge Wells

"Congratulations to Burcher Jennings! If any idea’s time has come, then surely this is it – a guide to what law firms are really charging. The pricing data available from Burcher Jennings is surely set to take its place alongside financial benchmarking surveys as a tool which no law firm’s managing partner can be without." Nigel Haddon, former law firm CEO, Immediate past Chair Law Management Section, Law Society of England & Wales

“When we are constantly bombarded with benchmarking data about how our competitors are doing, having something that will give real value is unusual. Being able to see whether a firm’s charging strategies are out of kilter with the market can only be a good thing”. Robert Camp, Managing Partner, Stephens Scown, Devon & Cornwall, a Chambers & Legal 500 'Leading Firm'
