Last year, we covered the inaugural Best of Corporate Counsel Survey of the top providers to the in-house corporate legal marketplace in July.  This year, Corporate Counsel apparently decided to move it up a bit as, on Monday, it released its Corporate Counsel Best of 2017 results, which (once again) include rankings in a few litigation support and eDiscovery categories.

As they note in their introductory letter, Corporate Counsel Best of 2017 highlights the businesses and individuals who garnered the most votes from members of the in-house legal community.  Voting was conducted via online ballot and limited to those working within in-house corporate legal and compliance departments.  Once again, the ballot consisted of 55 categories and over 1,500 votes were cast.

The survey results start here and span eighteen(!) pages with advertisements interspersed throughout.  Here are the results of some of the notable eDiscovery categories:
