After a strong year, Gloucestershire-based BPE Solicitors now has another reason to celebrate, with its technology team having been ranked in Band 3 by a prestigious legal directory for the first time.

‘Being ranked in any band is a significant achievement’, according to the world’s leading provider of legal research and analysis, Chambers & Partners, which publishes the annual directories.

The ranking of lawyers and law firms from Band 1 (highest) to Band 6 (lowest) is based on criteria including technical ability, professional conduct and commercial astuteness.

And the tech team is not the only one at BPE to be recognised this year. Its Band 2 corporate team is still the highest ranked corporate team in Cheltenham, while the firm’s family team has once again been ranked in Band 1.

BPE’s commercial property and employment teams have also maintained their Band 4 rankings.

Senior Partner, John Workman, said: ‘The results clearly show our strong position, both for long established core legal services including corporate and commercial property and newer sector specialisms such as technology.’

BPE Solicitors is headquartered in Cheltenham, but offers support across Cirencester, Bristol, Oxford and London to businesses from start-up to stock market flotation.
