Following the announcement of the latest Legal 500 rankings in September this year we are delighted to share that Swinburne Maddison LLP has once again been recommended in eight separate practice areas – covering the full range of disciplines across the firm – and awarded three Top Tier positions.

The rankings are compiled following an extensive independent research process, which considers detailed examples of work as well as feedback received from thousands of client and peer interviews to identify the leading law firms in the UK.  It goes without saying that we are immensely grateful to all of our clients and contacts who took the time to contribute to the research and provide their honest feedback on who we are and what we do.  This year was particularly humbling as we received more referee responses than any other law firm in the region!

Congratulations are due to Sharney Randhawa, who this year was named a “Rising Star” alongside Gillian Moir and Abigail Zuk, with Kath HillMartyn Tennant and Victoria Walton retaining their “Leading Individual” status and David Low once again being named a “Next Generation Partner”.

We have set out below a rundown of all eight of our recommended practice areas, alongside some of the wonderful testimonials taken directly from latest edition.
