Established in 2005, Lexology's Client Choice Awards recognise those law firms and partners around the world that "stand apart for the excellent client care they provide and the quality of their service". Law firms and partners can only be nominated by corporate counsel, where the criteria for recognition focuses on "an ability to add real value to client business above and beyond the other players in the market."

This latest success follows further individual success this year, having been named a 'Leading Individual' for Property Litigation in the West Midlands in the 2024 The Legal 500 UK rankings, and an 'Up and Coming' lawyer for Real Estate Litigation in the region by Chambers & Partners UK in its latest directory rankings results.

Rob has particular expertise in mines and minerals and rights of light disputes and recently appeared for the defendant developer in the High Court case of Adjoin Limited v Forty Two House SARL, a complex rights of light case which challenged conventional thinking on the relevant legal test in such cases.
