"From the results, 40% of respondents believe that firms will have separate brands for the practice and business of law. This level of support for separation supports own our hypothesis that premier law firms are more likely to transition from a monolithic approach to a model where they have established separate brands for their business and practice of law services...Whether as sub-brands (i.e. Ashurst Advance) or independent brands (i.e. Gravity Stack) is open to debate, but it will become harder and harder for firms to attract, develop, finance and harness the skills, relationships and data sets required to support clients in 2030 and beyond under the existing LLP model."
