&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;Benchmarking can catapult a law firm to a new level of performance, on a track toward continuous improvement. Athletes understand. Measurement improves performance. That is why they carefully study the performance of others. Exactly how important is it? A recent Juris, Inc. survey of midsized law firms disclosed that the top performing 25 percent of firms earn ten times the per partner income of the bottom 25 percent&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;A ten-fold difference in per partner income is good reason to attend the Legal Benchmarking Symposium to be held in Nashville, Tenn. on September 20, 2006.

&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;The symposium is not focused on one particular survey. Its objective is to help law firms take full advantage of the power of legal surveys. It deals with how to get the most benefit from the benchmarking data your firm receives from any survey in which it participates. There will be numerous survey vendors at this conference sharing survey information and their insight on benchmarking. The venue provides an opportunity for firms to engage in interactive conversations on the best benchmarking practices.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
