Lawyer Rankings

Under the very effective leadership of the ‘exceptional’ Claire Knowles, the ‘responsive, proactive and supportive’ team at Acuity Law continues to gain traction in the market and ‘has a good balance of experience and developing lawyers’. The arrival in February 2022 of the ‘very likeable, professional and sensible’ Juliette Franklin from Slater and Gordon has provided the firm with added gravitas on the contentious front, as a result of her claimant-side prowess in relation to discrimination claims. The recruitment in January 2023 of senior associate Rubel Bashir , also formerly of Slater and Gordon, enhances the associate ranks that also includes the ‘proactive and commercially focused’ Adam McGlynn . As well as his fee-earning work, McGlynn has also been very effective at developing technology-based products (alongside the firm’s existing longstanding Acuity Counsel subscription offering) including the Redundancy Costs Calculator and the IR35 Assist assessment tool.
