One of the West Midlands leading independent law firms, Ansons Solicitors, has been highly ranked in the latest Legal 500 UK guide – climbing the rankings for their Corporate and Commercial services.

The Legal 500 is one of the nation’s most important guides to law firms, solicitors and legal services in the UK. It is widely used by in-house solicitors, companies and clients to appoint the best lawyers.

In the newly released guide, published this week, Ansons has retained its position within four practice areas in the West Midlands:

• Dispute resolution: Commercial litigation – Tier 3
• Employment – Tier 5
• Agriculture and Estates – Tier 2
• Commercial Property – Tier 3

However, it is its increased ranking in the Corporate and Commercial practice area, to Tier 2, which stands out. This is built upon its exceptional work during the last few years, supporting some of the region’s most significant business transactions.

Alongside its rankings for various practice areas, six of the firm’s solicitors have been recognised as either Leading Individuals, Rising Stars or Next Generation Partners, while across the firm a total pool of 12 lawyers have been recommended by the influential guide.

Martin de Ridder, Managing Director at Ansons Solicitors, said: “We are delighted with the results of the latest Legal 500 UK guide, especially our improved rankings this year.

“To have so many ranked individuals within this guide is a testament to the incredible results our team achieve and their dedication to our clients.”The Legal 500 establishes its rankings through an exhaustive research methodology that incorporates client feedback, insights from peers, and expert opinions from those well-versed in the legal industry.

The tier placement for each practice is also influenced by an assessment of the intricacy and scope of the work they handle.

“We would also like to express our gratitude to all our clients and those who referred us, for dedicating time to offer their insights and testimonials. Your contributions have been invaluable in helping us achieve recognition for our efforts,” added Martin.
