Top Tier ranking for Clarke Willmott’s Manchester office in 2023 Legal 500

National law firm Clarke Willmott LLP has been recognised as a Top Tier firm in the 2023 Legal 500 guide which ranks the UK’s top lawyers and organisations.

Clarke Willmott received prestigious Top Tier rankings for 11 of its specialist practice areas, up one from last year’s results.

The Manchester office of the firm has continued to be named as a Top Tier firm in intellectual property and was named in Tier 2 in a further three specialist practice areas: personal tax, trusts and probate, social housing and IT and telecoms.

Additionally, two partners in the Manchester office have been listed in the elite ‘Leading Individuals’ list, the Legal 500’s guide to outstanding lawyers – Roy Crozier for intellectual property and Lindsay Felstead for social housing. Senior associate Andrew Stone made the ‘Next Generation Partner’ list for his work in intellectual property.

Roy Crozier, who is also head of the Manchester office, said: “We are delighted with our numerous rankings in the Legal 500 again this year both for our specialist practice areas and for individual lawyers.

“This guide features the best of the best so to receive such impressive results again this year really showcases our strength.

“The Legal 500 is among the most prestigious industry guides and rankings are partly based on client feedback which is a great indication of the quality of our work and the services we provide.

“The recognition reflects the time we invest in developing relationships with our clients, our high level of service and our great people.”

The Legal 500 series is widely acknowledged as the world’s largest legal referral guide. It is an independent guide and firms and individuals are recommended purely on merit.

Clarke Willmott LLP is a national law firm with seven offices across the country including Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff, London, Manchester, Southampton and Taunton.
