More recommendations for Fisher Jones Greenwood LLP in the 2009 Chambers Guide

The Chambers UK guide to the top UK law firms has established a unique reputation for its in-depth research. Based on thousands of interviews with lawyers and clients, the guide ranks solicitors and barristers in a number of specialist areas of law.

The new 2009 Guide recommends Fisher Jones Greenwood LLP in two areas. Regionally the firm is recommended for its immigration services, and for the first time it is also recommended nationally for civil liberties work. The comments from the guide in both areas are reproduced below.

Immigration

This Colchester-based team acts for a broad range of clients, from local businesses to national corporations. The group was founded ten years ago to work on asylum cases, and now undertakes a wide spectrum of both commercial and private immigration issues. Clients testify to its“incredibly thorough yet prompt and cost-effective service,”and market sources remain impressed by the“outstanding ability”of the solicitors. Partner Louise Boyes heads the team, and is especially involved on the commercial side of the practice.

Civil Liberties

This is an impressive practice comprised of[sic] “proactive, creative, flexible lawyers with the ability to think outside the box.” The firm is recommended for work in the field of immigration and community care. Tony Fisher heads the team.

Partner Tony Fisher said, “These recommendations follow an exceptional showing in this year’s Legal 500 guide and are a tribute to the hard work and dedication shown by both teams.”
