NAME AND SHAME

While The Lawyer has made every effort to ensure that all of the information included in this report is provided by the firms directly, there are always the inevitable few that refuse to respond to our questionnaires. In these cases we have estimated the figures from information supplied by unofficial sources with knowledge of the firms.

The question remains for those firms that declined to disclose their figures: what are you afraid of?
