Tim Galloway, Head of Birketts’ Private Client Division (pictured) reflected: “It is a great honour for our first-class Private Client and Advisory team to be recognised for the third year in a row. Our status as a nationwide leader in the legal sector has been further cemented by another strong year as we continue to support clients with a broad range of agricultural, estate, family and tax matters. We are particularly delighted to maintain our position as the only top ranked law firm in Essex and also to receive recognition for providing specialist expertise, at a standard that is frequently compared with major City firms, whilst maintaining a personal service. Being shortlisted is a pleasing reflection of the collective hard work of our teams over a number of years.”
