Midlands solicitors ranked top in Coventry

A Coventry law firm has been recognised as the most highly-ranked practice in the city by a leading law industry guide.

Band Hatton Button has seen its commercial property and corporate departments both move up a tier in the Legal 500, which is a yearly guide based on research of more than 250,000 clients and counsel globally and is widely regarded as the leading directory in the legal sector.

The rise is a reflection of both departments’ recent growth and increase in demand. Partner Nick Button who heads up commercial property was personally recognised for his work.

Others at Band Hatton Button were also recognised for their work throughout the year, including Haydn Jones for his work with charities and not-for-profit organisations and Tracy Cross who heads up the family department.

Practice areas debt recovery and personal tax, trusts and probate were also well ranked.

Mark Moseley, managing director at Band Hatton Button, said: “We’ve enjoyed a rapid year of growth thanks especially to the buoyant property market and we’ve had to adapt and expand to cope with that, and I am pleased that this has been recognised by Legal 500.

“We’re thrilled to have made further progress in the directory and have our teams’ hard work recognised by a guide that’s so well respected in the sector.

“To be well ranked in this guide helps to make us stand out from the crowd, and proves that we are a force to be reckoned with.

“It’s also encouraging news to see some of our key people recognised and remain the most highly ranked firm in Coventry.

“We have set a solid platform to work from in the year ahead, and the aim next year is to improve our rankings even further.”
