National law firm Clarke Willmott LLP is celebrating two of its lawyers being listed in the 2025 Spear’s 500 Guide for Landed Estate lawyers.

The firm is the only in the UK to have two lawyers named in the top 10 of the guide, which highlights exceptional expertise in rural and agricultural law.

The Spear’s 500 is widely regarded as the definitive guide to the top private client advisers in the UK, and this year’s edition recognises Clarke Willmott’s Mark Buckerfield and Rod Lloyd-Jones for their outstanding contributions to the landed estates sector.

Mark Buckerfield, Partner and Head of Private Property and Agriculture, is listed as Recommended for his deep experience in agricultural property transactions, tenancy law, and land financing.

Rod Lloyd-Jones, Partner in the Private Property and Agriculture team, is also ranked as Recommended, reflecting his extensive work with estate owners, agribusinesses and institutional landowners.

“This recognition is a testament to the strength of our team and the trust our clients place in us,” said Peter Swinburn, Clarke Willmott CEO. “To be the only firm with two lawyers listed in this category is a proud moment for Clarke Willmott and reinforces our position as a leader in landed estate law.”

With a national client base, Clarke Willmott continues to provide strategic, practical legal advice to farming families, estate owners, and rural businesses across the UK. For more information please speak to a member of the team.
