Andrew Jackson Solicitors has received further recognition in The Legal 500, a leading independent guide to the legal profession whose research draws on client feedback and recommendations.

Published on 30 September 2026, the 2027 UK edition recognises the firm’s expertise across a broad range of practice areas, with positive feedback reflecting clients’ experiences of working with its teams. The latest results represent the firm’s strongest-ever performance in the guide, with highlights including: –

• 10 Leading Partner recommendations, comprising Andrew Funnell, Nick Scott, Nick Dean, Caroline Hardcastle, Jonathan Dale, Azher Quyoom, Oliver Hall, Richard Hoare, Richard Mays and Geoff Phillips;
• Helen Mellors retaining her place in the Hall of Fame for Agriculture & Estates work;
• James Peel recognised as a Next Generation Partner (Education);
• Rikki Foster recognised as a Leading Associate (Litigation & Dispute Resolution);
• Five top-tier practice area rankings, alongside recommendations across a further 11 practice areas in tiers two to five;
• 52 individual lawyer recommendations, with several lawyers recognised in more than one practice area; and
• Continued recognition for the firm’s shipping & transport practice in the nationally recognised London section.

In the latest guide, one client comments that,  “Andrew Jackson is one of the few professional services firms that first and foremost sets out to understand its client’s business as if they worked there, and build relationships across multiple levels to gain understanding and trust.” Another notes, “What makes them different from competitors is their rare ability to marry high-level legal expertise with truly pragmatic, business-first advice.” Praise is also given for the firm’s “Personal and very professional approach. The perfect amount of empathy coupled with sound legal advice, delivered in a sympathetic way.”

Mark Pearson-Kendall, managing partner of Andrew Jackson Solicitors, said: “The feedback we receive from our clients is really important to us, so it’s particularly rewarding to see their experiences reflected in this year’s Legal 500 results. Building strong relationships and understanding what matters most to our clients are central to how we work, and this recognition is a testament to the commitment and expertise of our people across the firm.

“Achieving our strongest results to date is a fantastic endorsement, and we are grateful to everyone who took the time to share their feedback.”
