Apple has it by the bucket load. High-end fashion houses such as Gucci and Prada have it. Ferrari, Aston Martin and Jaguar all have it. But do Clifford Chance and Allen & Overy? According to more than 3,000 students, the answer is a resounding yes. What we're talking about is prestige – which, according to this year's annual Legal Week Intelligence Law Student Report, is one of the biggest factors in attracting would-be solicitors to apply to any given firm.

A reader questioned last month why we had chosen to highlight the fact that all of newly merged Dentons' recent EMEA partner promotions were female. Why was their gender relevant to their promotion, they asked – would we have raised the issue if all four of the new partners were male? And of course, he (or she) has a point. With so few women making partner – despite more of them than men joining the profession at entry level and various initiatives by firms to boost female retention – there is inevitably a bias towards reporting the few that do make the grade.

"Procter & Gamble may have been created by soap makers, but their brands have been built by running them as a rounded business," argues Mishcon de Reya's iconoclastic business development director Elliot Moss. "You would have never heard of P&G if they had left just the soap makers in charge. Law firms are no different."
