Gowling WLG has been commended in five legal categories in The Times Best Law Firms 2022, securing listings for banking & finance, commercial dispute resolution, commercial property, company and commercial, and IP.

Building on recent Times Best Law Firms success, the firm is praised for its work at the "cutting edge of the response to the pandemic" and "stand-out deals" across all named practice areas, as well as for its role as official legal advisors to the Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games.

The latest ranking results identify the best 200 firms in England and Wales, in 26 categories of legal practice, as commended by other lawyers following a survey of the solicitors' profession and in-depth analysis by law professionals.

Produced by The Times in co-operation with market researcher Statista, the entirely peer-selected results are based on one question: 'Other than your own firm, which practice would you instruct in this area of work?'

Creating a unique peer to peer snapshot of the legal profession in England and Wales today, the findings for 2022 assess which law firms are top of the tree in their specialist fields.
