Blandy & Blandy has again been recognised as a ‘top tier’ firm in the 2025 edition of The Legal 500, placing it among the leading law firms in the region.

Recognised as one of the leading guides to the legal profession, The Legal 500 analyses and ranks law firms based on how they are viewed by both clients and other professionals. The UK edition is one of more than 100 published worldwide.

Blandy & Blandy is recommended across 12 different practice areas and is named as a top tier firm in three of these areas - ‘Family’, ‘Personal Tax, Trusts and Probate’ and ‘Environment and Planning’. The firm is also ranked in the areas of ‘Corporate and Commercial’, ‘Employment’, ‘Commercial Property’, ‘Commercial Litigation’, ‘Insolvency and Recovery’, ‘Contentious Trusts and Probate’, ‘Charities’, ‘Public Sector’ and 'Licensing'.

Partner Karen Jones is named in the ‘hall of fame’ for the first time and six partners - Angela Bowman, Nick Burrows, John Dingle, Sue Dowling, Claire Dyer and Jonathan Gater - are singled out as ‘leading partners’ in their respective fields.

A total of 26 colleagues are recommended in the guide - Tasha Bevan-Stewart, Caroline Casagranda, Debbie Brett, Kelly Chandler, Tim Clark, Andrea Corr, Claire Clarke, Emma Ford, Peter Hilton, Rebecca Ledgerwood, Gemma Kemp, David Murray, Louise Nelson, Shashi Sachdeva, Jennifer Scott, Elizabeth Short, Gemma Stephenson, Katja Wigham and those above.

Comments from clients, professional contacts and peers, who participated in the research process, include: "I use Blandy & Blandy in preference to London based firms", "Definitely the biggest hitters in the Thames Valley region", "Very experienced partner led team", "They are in tune with commercial businesses and provide clear and transparent advice", "A stable and consistent team of highly qualified and approachable solicitors", "Very personable approach, timely and efficient responses, and a practical high-quality service", ‘The practice is truly collaborative, is great at communicating with clients and referrers and has a strong presence within the community", and "The service feels so tailored and personal to your needs, the team are always trying to exceed you expectations".
