Dublin, Feb. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Valeo 2025-2026 Early Indicators Report on Law Firm Hourly Rate Trends, Benchmarks, and Firmwide Pricing Changes" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
For the 2026 Early Indicators Law Firm Hourly Rate Report, the Platform identified annual 2026 firmwide hourly rate changes effective prior to January 1, 2026 and compared those rates to prior High and Low Standard and Average Billed hourly rates to determine the % increase or change in rates from 2025 to 2026.
Clients have found that these firms' rate changes are accurate barometers of rate changes for all large US law firms in terms of direction and amount, i.e., comparative hourly rate change by Position and Firm from the prior year and by how much. The changes for 2026 are greater than those for the same firms in 2025.
