If Chambers ranks X practice area in Y region (the office of which one has a CB and in which one is interested in working) band 4, but X practice area band 1 nationally, should one focus on the national ranking or the regional ranking?

My assumption is that the differing national ranking is based on another office. Check to see the attorneys that it is using to base that ranking off of and see if they are in the office you are looking at or another office.

Hm, all I can find is the name of the person who chairs the practice, and where the practice is based. I don't understand why they would assign the firm a national ranking in that practice area rather than a regional ranking, though, if it was only based on where the practice is based.
