During my time working on the Chambers Asia-Pacific research team, I gained in-depth insights on a range of different aspects:

• Legal directory practice area definitions and how to effectively present your firm’s expertise within these definitions. It is important to understand practice area definitions as they relate to your firm's practice areas and specific jurisdiction. Insights are provided on this via Daniel Sultan Consultancy.
• Demonstrating complexity and significance of work through your written work highlights. This can be a topic of confusion, in terms of what is considered to be complex or significant. Daniel Sultan Consultancy can help you to navigate this issue, as it relates to different practice areas in Asia-Pacific.
• Bringing individual lawyers onto legal directories’ radars. Firms are usually keen to get individuals ranked, alongside the firm department. Guidance on bringing individuals forward via the submission and referee lists is provided, as well as demonstrating your firm's bench strength.
• Selecting and interacting with referees. Best practice tips for choosing referees and dealing with common issues that arise during the process of researchers reaching out to them.
• Handling Chambers law firm interviews and maintaining contact with the research team beyond the research period.
• Besides Chambers, I also have experience of the Legal 500, Asian Legal Business and IFLR1000 submissions writing process.
