Baker McKenzie once again topped legal market research company Acritas’ latest ranking of global legal brands, and the firm has managed to grow its lead.

In the Acritas 2020 Global Elite Brand Index, the firm widened its margin over its two closest competitors, DLA Piper and Clifford Chance, from the last iteration of the rankings, released in October 2018. The two runners-up exchanged positions since then, with DLA Piper jumping ahead of Clifford Chance, but the distance between them and Baker McKenzie has only widened.
