Nigel Smith, Ellis Jones managing partner said: "It is a powerful, independent endorsement of our lawyers and services, largely complied on the basis of feedback gained from thousands of testimonials and interviews.

"The guide is a hallmark of excellence for the legal profession and richly deserved recognition of the hard work and talent of all at Ellis Jones and their commitment to providing the very best service to our clients."

The firm's commercial litigation, including dispute resolution and banking and finance teams; family; contentious trusts and probate; wills, trusts and probate; employment; business services; and property litigation departments are all ranked in the edition.

The guide also hails Ellis Jones’ 'very strong team of commercial and property litigators' who are 'personable, efficient and excellent with clients.'

Lauren Day is named as jointly leading the team alongside ‘heavyweight litigator and excellent strategist’ William Fox Bregman.

Partner Paul Kanolik is commended as a ’preeminent lawyer in betting and gaming disputes in Dorset’, while partner Victoria Riddleston is named for handling contentious trust and probate mandates.

Senior associate solicitor Conor Maher is listed as a key contact with an 'exceptional reputation for advocacy in the county courts'.

Associate solicitor Florence Newton is described as 'extremely diligent in her preparation of a case and punches above her weight'.
