Podcast: All About Lawyer Rankings

The recent release of the Lawdragon 500 Leading Lawyers in America was just the latest in a series of rankings purporting to pick the best and the brightest of the legal profession. From Martindale-Hubbell to Chambers and Partners, from Best Lawyers to SuperLawyers, we have no shortage of lawyer-ranking services. But are these rankings of any use to consumers? Do legal marketers see them as valuable or annoyances? What ethical issues do they raise? In this week's legal-affairs podcast Lawyer2Lawyer, we explore various aspects of lawyer ranking lists with three guests:

• Katrina Dewey, founder and CEO of Lawdragon.
• Mark Beese, chief marketing officer at Holland & Hart and author of the Law.com affiliate blog Leadership for Lawyers.
• Ben Cowgill, lawyer, writer and teacher in the field of legal ethics.
