Talk:Baker McKenzie

message: Note the following:
As of 2006, Baker & McKenzie...is the fifth largest law firm in the world by revenue.[3]...Among U.S. firms, it was ranked... the sixth largest by revenue.
This is mathematically impossible, unless there's at least one top-ranking US firm that doesn't count in the rest of the world. A previous editor has called for a citation, but really, since the first line is cited and the second is not, the second really ought to be just scrapped.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.173.189.73 (talk) 16:58, 20 April 2010 (UTC)

thread_title: In the news / Chronology

message: Many of the items from the "In the News" section read to me like they're from a press release.  Going back through the history I see that a number of the positive ones were added by anonymous editors.  I suspect this page has been hit by the B&M marketing department.  I'm not sure what to do about this section, but is it even encyclopedic?  Elliotreed 03:00, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That would be because someone (probably a B&M employee) deleted this information back in January. I have just reinstated it. -- Sakurambo 桜ん坊 08:29, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  In the News 

message: Per the above two comments, I have moved the history items from the news/media section to the history section, and left only the global media items in the media section. Also, the media items are now chronological and must stay that way. Softlavender (talk) 05:41, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

message: According to Lawyer.com, Skadden ARPS Slate Meagher & Flom was larger both in terms of profit and turnover.--2514 10:26, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I changed this section's title, as "Reputational matters" is overly obscure. There, I noticed the 2005 Phillips dry-cleaning item, which I think ought be removed, as too trivial and not encyclopedic in scope. Lindenfall (talk) 20:19, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: deleted today, as too trivial. Lindenfall (talk) 19:14, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Controversies 

message: For example, the lead no longer includes content about BM's key role in the modern tax avoidance system. It is the law firm most mentioned in the Pandora Papers and is described by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists as "an architect of the modern tax avoidance system." BM does not just help to hide wealth from questionable sources and figures, but is actively involved in lobbying legislatures to get rid of regulations that clamp down on tax avoidance.

thread_title:  Lead fails to summarize the body 

message: Every case is positive, or a case the firm won. It sounds like an advertisement to clients. DenverCoder9 (talk) 02:50, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
