OVERVIEW

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When you work with McDermott, you don’t just get the experience of an
individual. You get a purpose-built, tightly woven network of legal thought
leaders who marry their passion for business with a deep, focused understanding
of the law.

Most importantly, we’re committed to helping you make real progress against your
goals—to turning those big ideas into actionable plans—and to making it as easy
and enjoyable as possible.








“McDermott has been a true partner.  They have answered every call and email. 
They treat me like their only client. I have partnered with them on several
projects over several years.  The quality of their people and work is
exceptional.  I can always count on them.”
–Best Law Firms, Client Reference


CREATIVE SOLUTIONS

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our innovative solutions and technologies include:

 * Client Central: It’s all about collaboration. Our online portal enables
   clients to instantly see the status of their projects, minimizing uncertainty
   and allowing better matter management
 * Quantum Tracker: It’s all about transparency. Our proprietary software
   enables budget management, in real time, to track and evaluate projected
   spend, minimizing any budgetary surprises
 * Discovery: It’s all about innovation. We utilize advanced technology and data
   centers in the United States to review and manage massive amounts of clients’
   electronically stored information more affordably, accurately and efficiently
   than traditional discovery providers
 * Corporate Services: It’s all about alternatives. We achieve greater
   efficiency in general corporate work by having certain tasks performed by
   lower-cost, but McDermott-quality, team members
 * McDermottPlus: It’s all about leveraging a preeminent health law practice.
   Offering alternative rate structures, we provide a range of consulting
   services – including lobbying, data analytics and modeling, and policy advice
   – to diverse participants in the health care industry


CLIENT FEEDBACK

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


FOCUS ON THE CLIENT EXPERIENCE

Listening to our clients gives us tremendous insight into how clients perceive
our engagement and client service, which we use to adjust our approach to better
serve their needs. Our goal is to better understand our client’s world—from how
they approach their business objectives to the internal pressures they
manage—and determine how we can partner with them to achieve their goals.

Just as importantly, we seek to understand what our clients most value so we can
continue to exceed expectations. Through our robust Client Listening Program, we
conduct one-on-one client feedback interviews and an annual electronic
satisfaction survey to constantly assess and improve our culture of client
service across the Firm.


HOW WE MEASURE CLIENT SATISFACTION

As part of this program, we have developed a proprietary Client Relationship
Score (CRS) to measure client satisfaction and relationship health. The CRS
factors in Net-Promoter Score (NPS), as well as satisfaction scores across a
number of service areas. Since 2017, we have interviewed or surveyed over 1,100
contacts at 650+ client companies. Our Firmwide NPS from our 2019-20 client
survey is an 80 (over 70 is world class) and our overall CRS reflects a
similarly positive level of satisfaction from our clients.


PRICING

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We understand the challenges our clients face when anticipating and budgeting
for legal costs. To address these challenges, we offer project-specific fee
arrangements tailored to fit your budget, all designed to reduce legal fee risk
and encourage efficiency.

Certainty, Predictability, Risk Reduction – One price

Based on our experience analyzing component work streams from many thousands of
matters, we provide our clients with accurate fee structures that enable them to
anticipate legal fees with certainty.

We offer a wide range of alternative fee arrangements to align with your
strategic objectives for the matter at hand. These include:

 * Fixed fees
 * Phase based fees
 * Fee caps
 * Collars
 * Contingencies
 * Blended rates
 * Risk share arrangements

We have also invested in developing its own technology tools to help its lawyers
price matters appropriately and manage work efficiently. Our proprietary
technology enables attorneys to find similar matters over the multitudes of
matters handled historically to ensure you get the right price for the right
work; the tool also generates email alerts to keep teams informed of where their
matter stands against any agreed budget. This greatly enhances our ability to
manage projects with optimum efficiency in mind.

Our firm-wide pricing function is headed by one of the legal sector’s leading
pricing professionals, Steven Manton.

With more than a decade of law firm pricing experience, Steven previously
established the pricing function at one of the world’s leading law firms.
