What the numbers mean

Rating is each firm’s live Google average, and review volume is how many clients have rated it against the other firms we pulled. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a score from a few dozen people carries less weight than the same score from hundreds. Recency shows how recently clients are still reviewing. No business can pay to change these numbers.
