Legal bible names record number of lawyers at Browne Jacobson
9 August 2010
Chambers UK, the leading independent guide to the legal profession,
has rated 42 lawyers at Browne Jacobson as leaders in their field.
Of these 27 are based in the firm’s Nottingham office and 15 in
Birmingham. Last year 37 of the firm’s lawyers were rated by the
guide.
Partners Barry Sully, Dominic Offord, Nick Parsons, Peter Ellis,
Richard Barlow and Simon Tait appear in two categories each whilst
a further six lawyers will receive a rating for the very first time
including, amongst others, Iain Patterson (Employment), Paula
Dumbill (Intellectual Property), Peter Jones (Employment), Sarah
Erwin-Jones (Personal Injury) and Shaun McCabe (Banking &
Finance).
The list of leading individuals will appear in Chambers UK 2011
which will be officially unveiled in October this year.
Individuals are ranked after extensive research by the Chambers
team and nominations are put forward by peers, professionals,
referees and clients, as well as by the team submissions detailing
cases completed and interviews conducted with the researcher.
Iain Blatherwick, managing partner at Browne Jacobson, said:
“This ringing endorsement reflects the high quality of work
being done by the firm on a daily basis across all practice areas.
Chambers is regarded as one of the leading independent assessments
of the legal sector so it’s a real honour for the individuals and
the firm to have so many of its lawyers rated so highly.”
