Clarke Willmott CEO Peter Swinburn, who has been elevated to the rank of Eminent Practitioner for Real Estate in the South, said: “We are delighted with this year’s Chambers and Partners rankings, which closely followed our equally impressive Legal 500 results earlier this month.
“To rank in 29 specialist practice areas with 63 of our people receiving recommendations highlights our continued commitment to delivering incredible results to our clients and maintaining the high standards of legal service we have become known for.
“The excellent testimonials from our clients who are quoted in the guide are always rewarding to read and much appreciated by our talented and hard-working lawyers. It is an honour to receive this recognition from Chambers and Partners, which reflects the dedication, skill, and hard work of our entire team.”
