Karen Moores (pictured), senior partner, Sydney Mitchell said: "A wonderful result to see our lawyers recognised for the great work they do for their clients. Outstanding results for both our Immigration and Contentious Probate team in Tier 1 and for Kamal Majevadia and myself again identified as 'leading individuals ' in the Midlands.

"Time after time, especially over the past 12 months with the pressures of the pandemic, our lawyers and their supporting teams have again pulled out all the stops to deliver quality advice for our clients under pressure. We thank them for their commitment and our clients for their support and their outstanding comments.

"17 of our lawyers are highly recommended; many receiving outstanding comments from clients including '�worked tirelessly and very professionally at all times on my case. '; 'knowledgeable, responsive coupled with high professional standards '; 'eccessibility, transparency and a high degree of legal technical knowledge ' and 'expert service with a personal touch."

Dean Parnell and his team have been described as 'punching well above its weight' according to clients, which include local corporates and SMEs.

Karen Moores and the team were also recognised by one client as being "One of the hardest-working and committed teams I know. The team has a synergy that is palpable and productive. Everyone gets on and they are a pleasure to work with.

"The two stand-outs are Karen Moores and Mauro Vinti, a double act par excellence. Karen never stops, she is a dynamic legal whirlwind. She fights every injustice to the last with consummate skill, professionalism and charm. Her client base is loyal and deservedly so. A pleasure to work for and concerning to be against. Mauro mirrors such attributes and also brings to the firm the dynamic of well-considered pragmatism and knife sharp negotiating skills."
