The Lawyer 200 celebrates its 20th anniversary this year and Editors Catrin Griffiths, Christian Smith and Richard Simmons have been sharing their views on their annual survey in their regular podcast which presents their take on the top stories, trends and views in the legal market.
In October they reviewed five firms from the Top 100 survey that they are watching in the coming years, for good and ill. In their latest episode they revealed the five firms outside of the Top 100 that they are also watching. These firms were selected for their “momentum, innovation, promise, growth…or not!” and we are delighted to report that Lawrence Stephens is featured in a very positive light. We were praised for our ‘twin engine’ focus for growth, working with challenger banks and similar institutions alongside owner managed businesses and the individuals who own and manage these.
