Our Achievements

 

As a law firm we pride ourselves on our quality of service and the following achievements faithfully reflect that.

Chambers UK Leading Firm

Since 1990, Chambers has published the world's leading guides to the legal profession and has built a reputation for in-depth, objective research.

They identify and rank the world's best lawyers (i.e. those who perform best according to the criteria most valued by clients - such as technical expertise, business acumen, prompt delivery, value for money).

Spear's Wealth Management Awards

Spear's Wealth Management Survey magazine has named Bircham Dyson Bell Partner Simon Weil 'Philanthropy Adviser of the Year' at its 2011 Wealth Management Awards.

The award, which was judged on the basis of the impact, innovation and sustainability of philanthropic advice, confirms Simon's position as a leader in the field.

The Legal 500 Leading Firm

Published for over twenty years, the Legal 500 Series provides the most comprehensive worldwide coverage currently available on legal services providers, in over 100 countries.

2011 STEP Private Client Award

The STEP Private Client Awards highlight excellence among private client solicitors/attorneys, accountants, barristers, bankers, trust managers and financial advisors.

The Awards judges assess entries and shortlist up to five nominees. They are supported by a Panel of Experts selected by the judges and represent internationally renowned lawyers, accountants, barristers and trust companies.

Chambers Global Leading Individual

Since 1999, Chambers has been researching the legal markets of over 180 countries, identifying the leading lawyers and law firms worldwide through interviews with thousands of lawyers and their clients.

On 16 March 2012, Chambers Global 2012 ranked Nicholas Holland, our Head of Contentious Trusts and Estates, as a leading lawyer in three categories:

i) Private Client: Contentious Trusts,
ii Dispute Resolution, and
iii) Private Client. 

We are particularly pleased at the speed of Nick's ranking as he only commenced practising in the UK in November 2010.
 

Who we are

We are passionate about delivering on our clients' expectations.

This means taking time to understand our clients' business and their needs, to quickly establish what is and is not important, and then to cut through to the critical issues. It is a business like approach that we know differentiates us from a number of our competitors, and is equally appreciated by our clients, whether they are seeking advice in a personal capacity or on behalf of an organisation.
