We have won " Private Client Team of the Year" at this year's prestigious annual
Legal Business Awards.
The award recognises the top private client team in the country handling high-value legal advice in the areas of estates, charities, family, contentious and non-contentious trusts and probate, as well as personal tax. Receipt of the accolade is particularly impressive given the expansion of the private client team in opening new offices in Leeds and Manchester during the same period.
We now boast both the largest family team in the world and the largest private tax team in the UK. The judges recognised the team's achievements in maintaining an impressive caseload and the provision of innovative advice resulting in reported cases that have fundamentally changed family law. The firm's pioneering website:
www.divorce.co.uk, which offers visitors free advice in relation to family law, was also commended.
The team beat entries from Forsters, Paynes Hicks Beach, Clarke Willmott, Mischon de Reya and Baker & McKenzie who were all shortlisted.
