The numbers are often ugly. The competition is fierce … and resources are stretched drum tight. This is the reality of a modern legal marketer and not much rosier on the law firm business development side.

With that being said, differentiation occurred when comparing high growth/ high performing firms with no-growth firms. High-growth firms are projecting growth of 38% in business development spend in 2021/22, compared to 15% projections, while their no-growth counterparts are looking at just 10% spend increases.

BTI Consulting's recent survey of more than 300 legal marketers shows that since May 2020, the typical law firm is winning 26% of RFPs, down from 32% before the pandemic. Simultaneously, BTI, LexisNexis and others are reporting RFP request rates doubling and even tripling in some instances.

Risks of “Baseball Arbitration” in Resolving Real Estate Disputes Image

“Baseball arbitration” refers to the process used in Major League Baseball in which if an eligible player's representative and the club ownership cannot reach a compensation agreement through negotiation, each party enters a final submission and during a formal hearing each side — player and management — presents its case and then the designated panel of arbitrators chooses one of the salary bids with no other result being allowed. This method has become increasingly popular even beyond the sport of baseball.
