Regional law firm Wards Solicitors has once again been recommended as a leading practice in the 2021 edition of the Legal 500, an independent guide to the UK’s best lawyers and law firms.
Wards achieved rankings in three practice areas this year by the prestigious guide, which uses anonymous feedback from satisfied clients as one of its key means of determining which firms are listed.
Wards’ three recommended practice areas are:
‘Wards’ demonstrate an excellent grasp of complex issues and the ability to communicate in a professional but personable manner. They are prepared to spend time explaining more involved areas of law and the implications of these.’
‘The individuals within the team are reliable, professional and approachable and genuinely care about their clients.’
‘They are knowledgeable and experts in their own field, personable and client friendly.’
