Mackrell International secures top ranking in legal directory
Mackrell International (MI) has been ranked as a leading global network in legal-industry directory, Chambers and Partners, for the 13th year in a row - this year securing a 'band-one' ranking.
Keith Heddle, managing director of Mackrell International, said:
“This recognition is a testament to our continuous innovation, value-driven approach and the difference we make – not just for our member firms, but also for their clients.”
The Chambers Global Guide identifies the world’s best lawyers, law firms and legal networks across more than 190 countries. Rankings are based on rigorous research and
independent analysis conducted by a team of industry experts.
MI comprises 95 member firms, representing over 4,500 lawyers across more than 60 countries. The network continues to expand, welcoming dynamic, multi-service law firms that align with MI’s ethos, of delivering exceptional client service while strengthening the global legal community.
Law firm, BTO, which has offices in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Helensburgh, has been a member of MI since 2005.
Caroline Carr, BTO chair commented: “BTO’s clients rely on us for both their UK and global legal needs. Our MI membership extends our reach, giving our clients seamless access to trusted legal advice worldwide. We are also in a position, through our membership, to offer first-class legal services in the UK to the network’s clients.”
Keith added: “This milestone reflects not only the legal and commercial strength of our network, but also the vibrant and collaborative community we’ve built.”
More than 30 per cent of MI firms and over 230 individual lawyers are ranked in the Chambers directories.
