Newcastle law firm shines in Legal 500 rankings

A Newcastle-based law firm has been recognised for excellence across multiple practice areas.

Burnetts Solicitors LLP has been highlighted in The Legal 500 UK Solicitors 2026 rankings, with ten recommended practice areas, as well as eight lawyers listed as leading individuals, four next generation partners and five leading associates. 

Five of the firm’s departments achieved top-tier status, including corporate and commercial, dispute resolution, personal injury and clinical negligence, agriculture and estates, and commercial property.

The rankings are based on months of research, including thousands of interviews with lawyers and detailed review of submissions, identifying the most highly regarded law firms and practitioners across the UK.

Nick Gutteridge, managing partner at Burnetts, said: “I’m so proud to be part of the Burnetts team.

“Our people are exceptionally knowledgeable in their specialisms and really go above and beyond for our clients. 

“They take great pride in their work and this is all reflected in this year’s Legal 500 results.”
