How to add content to a department profile
Choose which guide you want to start with (you'll see a list of guides in which your firm is both ranked and has taken out a subscription for).
Choose the department from the available list.
In the overview tab write a brief account of that department (1,500 character limit).
In the members tab you'll see the lawyers ranked by Chambers in the department (they will automatically appear in the department profile); here, you can add other lawyers to the profile, using the dropdown menu, or text box. You can also select up to three Heads of Department if you wish (they will be described as such on the website).
In the industries and clients tab, type in which industries and clients you want to display.
In the Key Contact section add up to two individuals you’d like to list as key contacts for the department.
The department profile should be visible on the main Chambers website within 24 hours.
You can add content to another profile by going back to step 2.
