It marks Weightmans’ ninth consecutive appearance in the list
Weightmans has once again been recognised in The Times Best Law Firms 2027 list, which identifies the 250 leading law firms in England and Wales, based on recommendations from lawyers.
The firm was specifically commended for its excellence in family law.

Emma Collins, Partner and Head of Individual Services, said:
“Being recognised in The Times Best Law Firms 2027 for family law is the icing on the cake of what has been a strong year of growth for the practice. It is particularly meaningful because it is based on recommendations from our peers.
“I must congratulate our team of expert advisors who make this all possible. Their hard work, talent and passion for client excellence is second to none.”
Weightmans’ national team of family law solicitors support clients with family disputes and complex divorces to find solutions through constructive communication.
