Local law firm ranked
amongst the best Leading South East law firm Thomson Snell & Passmore has been recognised in The Times Best Law Firms 2020, one of only two firms in Kent to be listed. The family and business tax practices are commended as amongst the top in the country. Only 200 of more than 10,000 legal practices in England and Wales made the list, which has been compiled by The Times and Statista, and is entirely peer selected. It is based on lawyers answering one simple question: “Other than your own firm, which practice would you instruct in this area of work?”, and is broken down across 31 practice areas. Joanne Gallagher, who heads up
the firm’s corporate and commercial group, was also referenced in the listing, for her work on a range of acquisitions for clients. Thomson Snell & Passmore’s ranking builds on last year’s recognition, where its family practice was featured as one of only two Kent-based firms in that category. • Visit
