THE BEST LAW FIRMS, LE POINT 2022 RANKING
DISTINCTION IN ENVIRONMENTAL LAW
The independent institute Statista invited more than 19,000 lawyers and in-house counsel to
participate in the fourth Le Point ranking. Lawyers were asked to indicate which peers they would
recommend to their clients and to rate the technical expertise of the firms they are familiar with.
For their part, the lawyers and clients who wished to participate rated the firms on a scale of 1 to 6
for three criteria (technical expertise, responsiveness and transparency). To appear in the ranking,
a law firm had to obtain a number of recommendations and a score higher than the average of the
participants.
The results were published at : The best law firms 2022: our methodology – Le Point
Huglo Lepage is very pleased to be ranked for the third year in a row among the top firms in
environmental law and for the first year in public law. We are delighted that the quality of our
teams’ work has once again been acknowledged.
