About Daniel Sultan Consultancy Ltd
About the founder
Daniel Sultan Consultancy Ltd was founded in November 2024, with the aim to help law firms to optimise their submissions to legal directories, such as Chambers and Partners, Legal 500 and others. The founder, Daniel Sultan, worked on the Asia-Pacific team at Chambers and Partners from November 2015 until August 2024.
Whether you are looking to gain a first ranking, or trying to improve existing rankings, the services of Daniel Sultan Consultancy Ltd are designed to help you put your best foot forward when submitting to the legal directories, based on insights gained by the founder, Daniel Sultan, whilst working at Chambers and Partners for many years.
The founder spent several years overseeing Chambers research and rankings in South-East Asia, South Asia and Central Asia, presiding over practice area changes and guiding researchers on following the Chambers methodological approach. This has led to a strong understanding of the legal directories submission process as it relates to Asia-Pacific.
