We are delighted to announce that four partners have been recognised as leaders in their field by Chambers UK -A Guide to the UK Legal Profession. Tim Constable (Litigation and dispute resolution), Craig Havard (Employment), Michael Larcombe (Real estate property) and David Wilkinson (Private client). The rankings are based on extensive client and peer reviews and recognise qualities such as technical ability, professional conduct, commitment, client service and commercial awareness.

In addition, the Legal 500 has released its new rankings for 2007. Our private client practice continues to be ranked in the highest band of excellence and six other practice groups (corporate and commercial, employment, litigation and dispute resolution, charities, family and commercial property) are all given leading rankings.

The Legal 500 commented: "No problems appear too big" for David Stanning's busy corporate team; Tim Constable and Nick Hallchurch are both top-quality litigators whose "accuracy and commerciality are second to none" and David Pritchard has built a solid practice as a mediator with experience ranging from banking to IP; the employment practice "never lets its client down"; Sue Andrews of our family team regularly advises on multimillion pound assets, including family owned businesses and trusts in the UK and abroad; and the highly recommended private client practice, under Jeremy Mills, specialises in life and estate planning with particular emphasis on trusts.
