North West firm Stephensons Solicitors LLP has been given an excellent endorsement for its provision of legal services in the 2011 edition of Chambers and Partners UK, with four talented solicitors named as leaders in their fields.
The Chambers UK guide is one of the leading independent guides to the legal profession. Published annually after extensive research, the Guide recommends law firms and individuals for their expertise by ranking them in bands one to four.
In the latest guide, Stephensons’ Partners, Andrew Welch (Personal Injury), Mike Devlin (Family) and Louise Griffiths (Clinical Negligence) have been named as leaders in their fields. Associate solicitor Mike Pemberton has also been ranked as a leader for his work in the fields of civil liberties, prison law and public law.
The firms’ Family, Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence departments, and for the first time, Crime, have also been recommended.
Ann Harrison, chairwoman of Stephensons, said: “Chambers is an important indicator of how well we are doing at providing the very best legal services in the region, so I am pleased that so many of our solicitors and teams have received the praise they deserve.”
