A solicitors firm in Gerrards Cross has been chosen from thousands of law firms across England as the best regional team.

B P Collins’ corporate and commercial team were picked after a team of researchers from the country’s leading guide to the legal industry, Legal 500, chose them from a list of firms from eight regions of the country.

After conducting thousands of interviews with different law firms and looking at their recent work, historical track record, significant developments and ancillary services, Legal 500 chose B P Collins as the best team.

A Legal 500 spokesman said: “Over many months of thorough painstaking research, we conducted thousands of interviews with law firms, sets and in-house counsel in the UK to pinpoint the most capable, expert firms operating at the top of their game across a number of different areas.

“B P Collins stood out for us because it attracted exceptional feedback from clients, punched massively above its weight with notable expertise in the environment and technology sectors.”

The company was shortlisted alongside the likes of Irwin Mitchell, Mills and Reeve LLP and Freeths.

Simon Deans, Corporate and Commercial Partner, B P Collins said: “This is fantastic recognition of just some of the excellent client work going on at B P Collins.  The award acknowledges the strength of the firm's corporate and commercial capabilities and the tremendous effort on the part of its team to understand our clients and the markets in which they operate. To be regarded as the best amongst national and global firms is a great achievement and confirms our standing in the local region and beyond.

“Thames Valley remains a powerhouse of corporate and commercial activity and to have been recognised in this way by Legal 500 UK, indicates the integral role our firm is playing in the region’s continued growth.

“We hope that this national recognition will help us to expand the firm even further to offer legal advice to a wider range of businesses.”
