We are delighted to announce that our specialist family law firm has once more been ranked within Tier 1 of the Legal 500 for 2023/2024 and has again been recognised by the prestigious Chambers & Partners for 2024.
Both the Legal 500 and Chambers & Partners are independent directories which assess the strengths of law firms. Every year, researchers comprehensively review the performance of law firms, based upon an in-depth criterion, including a firm’s reputation and strong technical ability in handling complex and innovative matters.
We are therefore delighted that our boutique family law firm has been ranked by the Legal 500 as a leading Tier 1 firm based within the North-West of England.
Client care is at the forefront of the work we undertake, and it is therefore a credit that Chambers & Partners (2024) have recognised this and have commented that our ‘excellent team’ ensure ‘client care standards are a priority for the firm’.
