The Legal 500 Award for Kopeć & Zaborowski for Effectiveness and Client Trust

Kopeć & Zaborowski (KKZ) Law Firm has been among the recognized firms in the prestigious The Legal 500 ranking for many years – one of the most important and influential international rankings assessing the legal services market.

The Legal 500 is a global legal ranking published for over 30 years, covering hundreds of jurisdictions and thousands of law firms worldwide. It is widely regarded as one of the most reliable benchmarks of the quality of legal services.

The ranking is based on a multi-stage research process that includes:

• analysis of hundreds of law firm submissions and case descriptions
• interviews with lawyers and law firm clients
• independent market research conducted by dedicated analysts
• assessment of case outcomes, project complexity and the experience of legal teams

A key element of the methodology is client feedback, which directly influences the final assessment of a law firm and its position in the ranking.

Unlike many other rankings, The Legal 500 largely focuses on how a law firm is perceived by its clients and the market, rather than relying solely on firms’ own submissions and claims.
