According to BTI, corporate counsel identified six traits common across all of the recognized Client Service All-Stars, including: superior client focus; innovative thought leadership; unmatched business understanding; legal skills; outsized value; and outstanding results.
BTI selects Client Service All-Stars after an extensive research process that includes in-depth interviews with General Counsel, Chief Legal Officers, and other legal decision makers at companies operating in more than 15 industry segments. As stated in BTI’s formal announcement of this year’s honorees, “No attorney or firm can self-nominate, self-refer nor pay to be included. The only possible avenue for becoming a BTI Client Service All-Star is for corporate counsel to identify an attorney who stands out – above all the others – for delivering superior client service, in an unprompted manner.”
