Methodology

The lists of The Best Law Firms in Spain 2022 by CincoDías Statista are based on the recommendations from lawyers that work in a Law Firm (peer surveys) and clients (lawyers who work in the legal departments of private or public companies) in 21 different legal categories.

Almost 16,000 lawyers throughout all Spain were invited to participate in the survey. The sample was compiled based on research conducted by Statista using public access sources, such as Company websites and other publicly available sources. The invitations were sent by e-mail which included a personalised link which could only be used once. In addition, the lawyers and clients were able to participate in the survey through an open link. In these cases, the participants had to validate themselves by providing a professional company e-mail address, before their answers were included in the evaluation. The awards were announced on the CincoDías website and on the Statista project web page.

The survey was conducted between 3rd of May and 25th of June 2021 and over 3,000 lawyers replied to the invitation. Statista registered more than 6,500 recommendations from professional Law Firms in different legal fields. Self-recommendations were forbidden and were not included.
