Lawrence Stephens is delighted to share that it has been recognised in the 2026 Legal 500 Directory in the Commercial Property: Occupiers, Property Finance, Residential Property, Retail and Consumer and TMT: Sport categories.
The Sport and Entertainment team’s ranking has improved, moving up to Tier 4, and our Banking and Real Estate Finance teams have maintained their Tier 7 ranking in the very competitive Property Finance category.
We were also pleased to be recognised as a ‘Firm to Watch’ for the first time in the Commercial Property: Occupiers, Residential Property, and Retail and Consumer categories.
This widening of recognition reflects the increased awareness and profile we have achieved with our clients and other legal sector intermediaries.
We continue to grow, undertaking larger and more complex assignments, and these more substantial mandates, increased bench strength and our distinctive approach are helping build our reputation across the board. It is very rewarding to hear our clients talk about our “ability to be commercial, decipher a client’s needs, and provide recommendations accordingly”, we couldn’t have hoped for more.
Managing Director Steven Bernstein commented: “This is very much a journey. We’re proud of what we’ve achieved and, like our clients, we are ambitious and keen to learn. We look forward to building on these strong foundations”.
