They also have associations/alliances with firms in Malaysia, Brazil, Peru, Argentina, Central America, the USA, Australia, and Germany.
The firm is a broad-based commercial firm with a strong heritage in insurance, health, and real estate. This is complemented by a fast-growing Business Advisory capability. They represent a wide range of clients, ranging from household names to government departments and NHS bodies. They act for all of the UK’s top-ten insurers, are market leaders in the provision of strategic, commercial, and regulatory advice to providers and commissioners in the health sector, and in real estate we advise all of the UK’s top-12 house builders.
They have an impressive legal pedigree, with 142 Chambers UK 2021 practice area and individual lawyer rankings. In Legal 500 UK 2021, the firm received a top-tier ranking for 37 of its practice areas, and 58 of the firm's lawyers were singled out in the ‘Leading Individual' rankings.
The firm's successes have been recognised by the legal industry and the markets in which they operate. These accolades include two top prizes in the ‘Excellence in Business Development’ and ‘Excellence in Technology & Innovation’ categories of the 2020 Law Society Excellence Awards – the highest accolade for law firms in England & Wales. Their health sector team won the ‘Crisis Management Team of the Year award at the 2020 British Legal Awards for its support to the NHS at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, and their Cyber & Data Risk team received the ‘Business Development Innovation Award’ at the 2020 Legal Innovation Awards, as well as ‘Cyber Law Firm of the Year’ at the prestigious Insurance Insider Cyber Rankings Awards, for its market-leading suite of digital tools to help their clients prepare for and respond to cyber and data risk crises.
The firm's commercial real estate team comprises 65 lawyers working across all offices – London, Bristol, Manchester, Newcastle, Leeds, and Glasgow. It forms part of a wider real estate department including specialists in construction, planning, residential development, and property litigation.
The team has a strong and growing pipeline of work from existing and new clients and needs new team members from NQ to Legal Director (or equivalent) to service the needs of those clients. The new team members will focus on commercial investment and development work, acting for institutional investors, property companies, and real estate developers. The clients are London based, but they are looking for team members to join their existing commercial real estate teams nationally.
